Champagne Pierre Mignon - Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru

Guide VERON des Champagnes 2021
(around 29 euros per bottle)



Aspect:

White gold, crystal-clear.

Delicate and dynamic bubbles.

Nose:

The finesse and the elegance of the Chardonnay, exclusive varietal of the cuvée, establish themselves with gentleness at the first nose.

The heady aromas of citrus fruits, apple and pear, gently interlace the touches of hazelnut and white flowers, highlighted by an iodized and mentholated breath.
Palate:

Brilliant purity at the opening, underlined by the outstanding minerality of the chalk of the Côte des Blancs.

Later, the mouth becomes sensual, barely roasted, characteristic sign of the maturity of the cuvée obtained by 4 years of patient ageing on laths of the bottles, with slow autolysis of the prise de mousse yeasts.

With this Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru, Jean-Charles Mignon orchestrates with sensitivity the meeting of the Grands Crus of Chouilly, Cramant and Avize.
