André Clouet Brut Grande Réserve (75cl, 12%)

André Clouet Brut Grande Réserve is a non-vintage Grand Cru Champagne made from 100% Pinot Noir. It is composed of approximately 70% wine from the current vintage blended with 30% reserve wines aged two to five years in tank. Fruit is sourced exclusively from Grand Cru vineyards in Bouzy and Ambonnay, and the finished wine receives a dosage of 8 grams per litre. The nose opens with candied citrus and ripe pear, then brioche, hazelnut and dried flowers, with wet stone and bread dough beneath. The palate is fresh and creamy, with yellow apple, apricot, spice and toast. The finish is generous, with lemon zest, toasted hazelnut and chalky minerality.
