Ployez-Jacquemart Extra Brut Champagne Blanc de Blancs 2012

92 points Gilbert & Gaillard Guide: "Lovely bright golden yellow colour. Open nose revealing toasty accents. Same aromatic spectrum on the palate, which retains a real freshness. Expressive, persistent and remarkable finish. (Jan 2024)"

Producer notes: "100% Chardonnay. This vintage 2012 Blanc de Blancs is blended from a selection of elegant, refined Chardonnays. The plots of old vines from the Premiers Crus of Cuis and Bisseuil are vinified in oak barrels without malolactic fermentation. The rest of the blend is made up of whites from the Grand Cru terroir of Puisieulx and the Premier Cru terroir of Cuis. As with the rest of our vintage range, Vintage Extra-Brut Blanc de Blancs 2012 has been aged in our cellars for a minimum of 6 years. For the first five years, the wine is aged «sur pointe». This traditional ageing method limits contact with yeast, while retaining the benefits of ageing before disgorgement and keeping the wine as fresh as possible for as long as possible. Dosage: 3 g/L."
