Description
What kind of wine it is
Huré Frères Champagne Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut Inattendue is a clear French expression. Made from Chardonnay grapes, it displays a lively aromatic profile. On the nose, the Champagne releases lemon notes and delicate hints of hawthorn. On the palate, the production according to the Traditional Method offers a creamy and full-bodied taste. Its elegant structure makes it ideal to pair with lean fish, aperitifs, seafood starters and cheeses.
Where it comes from
This sparkling wine originates from the renowned Champagne region, between the villages of Ludes and Rilly-la-Montagne, areas that impart extreme finesse. In these locations, Chardonnay finds the ideal conditions to develop remarkable ageing potential. The soil gives a linear character, where a pronounced refreshing note balances the enveloping nature of the drink, ensuring a profound tasting experience.
How it is produced
The prise de mousse follows the principles of bottle refermentation of the Traditional Method, faithfully enhancing the qualities of the grape variety. The choice of Extra Brut style ensures a low dosage, essential for maintaining maximum precision and gustatory tension. Such technical care results in a full and structured texture, capable of preserving the fruit's liveliness and culminating in a satisfying and well-balanced finish.
