Wine Description
The Story
Blend: 100% Pinot Noir from Premier Cru
The passion of Duval-Leroy for authenticity is demonstrated in this cuvee made only from Pinot Noir. This Blanc de Noirs comes from a Premier Cru village in the Valley of the Marne, Cumieres, and is the product of biologically based viticulture*.
From the 2005 vintage, this wine for the true connoisseur releases a powerful bouquet, at once both balanced and complex. This aroma is distinguished by the concentration of the Pinot Noir vinified entirely in oak barrels to give it power and elegance. It shows a yellow colour speckled with gold.
A product of the close relationship between the vines and the sun, and a profound observance of nature, this wine causes a liveliness mixed with smooth and warm touches behind a well-balanced depth to explode in the mouth, giving pleasure to connoisseurs and lovers of distinctive flavours.
Aromas of toasted dry fruits and of nougat will delight the keenest lovers of champagne. Its depth will express itself alongside red meat, buttered potato with nutmeg, and sweet onion meuniere.
