La Piu Belle Espumante

Description

La Piu Belle was born beneath the lucky star of an abundant nature and an early harvest from selected plots, with the 2009 vintage reflecting the uniqueness and energy of La Piu Belle Champagne: an exceptional cuvée of extreme finesse, carried by a freshness led by Chardonnay, combined with the delightful maturity of a twelve‑year ageing in our chalk cellars. 2009, A PARTICULARLY WARM YEAR The winter allowed the vines to rest pleasantly, and the seasons continued with a very sunny, dry spring in Champagne, setting the trend throughout the summer until harvest. We harvested grapes smaller than usual, but with a much higher concentration of aromas. The early‑harvest Chardonnays retain a pleasant freshness and precise minerality. The Pinot Noirs, mature and highly concentrated, bring complexity and richness to the blend. In short, the combined effect of generous nature and a slightly early harvest of certain plots helped create this exceptional cuvée. SET Made from a blend of 70 % Chardonnay from the finest Crus of the Côte de Blancs and 30 % Pinot Noir, the La Piu Belle Champagne 2009 Vintage is an exceptional Champagne, marked by a notable freshness and seductive aromas thanks to twelve precious years of maturation in our cellars.
