Monmarthe Le Mont Joyeux Blanc de Blancs 2018
A luminous golden Champagne with fine, persistent bubbles. The nose unveils aromas of white flowers and subtle hints of vanilla from barrel aging. On the palate, it offers an open and mineral attack, with flavors reminiscent of crunchy peaches and tangy melon. The finish is long and round, with refreshing citrus and mandarin notes.
This wine is a testament to the unique terroir of the "Le Mont Joyeux" plot in Ludes, where 50-year-old Chardonnay vines thrive on a chalk-rich soil with a southeast exposure.
