Champagne Alain Vesselle - Cuvée Saint Eloi Grand Cru

 

Guide VERON des Champagnes 2022
(around 25 euros per bottle)

Aspect

Golden, brilliant and crystal-clear.

Delicate bubbles. 

Nose

Radiant and complex scents of red and black fruits, white fruits, candied citrus fruits and nice ripe peach, gently spicy, heady revelations of the sensual meeting of the Pinot Noir and of the Chardonnay, in equal parts.

Palate

The lively opening, underlined by the minerality of the chalk, unveils the maturity of the cuvée, with touches of toast and pastries, result of 5 years of ageing on laths of the bottles, before riddling and disgorgement.

With this Cuvée Saint Eloi Grand Cru which uses his father’s first name, Guillaume Vesselle signs an inspired interpretation of the Grand Cru of Bouzy, in the Mountain of Reims.
