Champagne Nicolas Feuillatte - Palmes d’Or Brut Millésime 2006

Guide VERON des Champagnes 2020

(around 90 euros per bottle)
Mythical champagne

Inimitable presentation, aesthetic reference now unmissable.

Aspect:

Golden, radiant.

Graceful bubbles.

Delicate bead of foam.

Nose:

Aromatic explosion, revelation of the fullness of the champagne.

Initially marked by the fragrances of red and black fruits and cherry liqueur, signatures of the Pinot Noir (50%) chosen in the Grands Crus of the Mountain of Reims (Bouzy, Verzy, Verzenay, Aÿ and Ambonnay).

The scents of white fruits and candied exotic fruits the join in, characteristic signs of the Chardonnay (50%) rigorously selected in the Grands Crus of the Côte des Blancs (Chouilly, Cramant, Oger, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger and Avize) and in the terroir of Montgueux.

Outstanding roasted touches thanks to 10 years of ageing on laths of the bottles.

Palate:

Splendid purity at the opening, enhanced by the minerality of the chalk.

The mouth becomes velvet, powerful and creamy, revealed by the refined effervescence.

Finish supported by a heat wave, sensual and enveloping, punctuated by soft spices.

Exceptional length on the palate.

Guillaume Roffiaen, cellar master of the Champagne house Nicolas Feuillatte, was able to soak up the personality of this Palmes d’Or Brut Millésime 2006 to stage the touching soul of the great terroirs of Champagne.

Partner for all selected occasions, with a roasted duckling, apples and honey, for example.

First brand of champagnes from wine growers, first brand in France and third in the world, the Champagne house Nicolas Feuillatte, created in 1972 under the leadership of its visionary founder Henri Macquart, unites 4,500 wine growers around the passion for champagne. Guillaume Roffiaen, creative cellar master, composes with talent, in the modern facilities of Chouilly, the inspired blending of wines from the best Crus of Champagne (11 of the 17 Grands Crus and 26 of the 42 Premiers Crus), to establish the styles « Nicolas Feuillatte » and « Palmes d’Or » internationally.
