Sparkling wine Tarlant, Cuvée Louis Brut Champagne
This Cuvée is the estate's most iconic wines and is made in a rich and lush style. After spending about several years on the lees, this full-bodied wine is complex and impressive.
Characteristics
Wine Style:
Sparkling - With layers of complex flavors after years on the lees, the wine over-delivers in secondary aromas and racy acidity.
Tasting Notes:
The wine is highly complex, with intense notes of nougat, nuts, berries, and baked pastry. It also offers a zippy acidity, an oxidative note, and a chalky mouthfeel. Nonetheless, it is a deep and powerful wine.
Gastronomy:
The complexity of the wine deserves a complex dish like scallops, seafood ravioli, or lobster. Other rich fishes, like salmon and fresh tuna, are also exceptional choices.
Vineyards:
The vineyards are located on the slopes of their les Crayons vineyards. The soil varies vastly here but offers a high chalk content, adding to the wines’ uniqueness.
Winemaking process:
The wine is an even blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir and frequently spends 15 years on the lees.
Interesting notes:
The wine has received raving reviews from James Suckling, Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, and Wine Spectator.
