2014 De Venoge Louis XV Brut Champagne

About Winery

The Maison De Venoge offers here its Prestige Cuvée: the "Louis XV" 2014, made only from Grand Cru grapes. It is composed of 50% Pinot Noir from the terroirs of Verzenay and Bouzy and 50% Chardonnay from the Grand Cru terroirs of Oger, Avize and Le Mesnil sur Oger. There is no malolactic fermentation.

It is named after the King of France who introduced champagne to the Court and especially who authorized by royal decree in 1728 that champagne wines are marketed and transported in bottles.

The nose offers notes of citrus fruits that are found in the mouth. A very nice tension in the mouth also reveals notes of yellow fruits. The palate is both complex and mineral and the finish is very fresh.

The 2014 Louis XV Cuvée from Maison De Venoge has an excellent aging potential but can be enjoyed now as an aperitif as well as during a meal.
