Champagne Loriot Père et Fils - Excellence

Guide VERON des Champagnes 2021
(around 26 euros per bottle)

 

 

Aspect:

 

Gold, bright.

 

Very fine and regular bubbles.

 

Nose:

 

Endless farandole of delicious fragrances.

 

The radiant aromas of candied red and black fruits, barely spicy, harmoniously mingle with fragrances of white flowers, apple, pear and citrus fruits, characteristic signs of the meeting inspired of the 3 champenois varietals.

Palate:

 

Heady vitality thanks to the selection of the first juices during the pressing of the grapes (cuvée) and to the adjusted dosage with only 4 g/L of sugar added.

 

Sensual balance, highlighted by elegant woody notes obtained by the passage in oak barrels of 50% of the base wines, and reinforced by the long ageing of the bottles on laths.

 

With this cuvée Excellence, Eric Loriot and his son Pierre-Etienne offer us a remarkable interpretation of the noble terroirs of the Marne Valley.
