Extra Brut Cuvée by Alexandre Penet

Beschreibung

A skilful blend of three Champagne grape varieties with a focus on Pinot, including 30% reserve wines, and aged over 24 months on lees.

Alexandre Penet Extra Brut is fresh and exciting on the nose with elegant floral aromas and hints of citrus fruit and hazelnut.

The same delightful freshness continues on the initial palate then evolves into a wonderful balance of richness and uplifting minerality which lasts and lasts.
