Champagne Veuve Eléonore - Extase

Guide VERON des Champagnes 2021
(around 30 euros per bottle)

 


 

Aspect:

 

Gold, coupled with coppery glints.

 

Effervescence of a rare finesse.

 

Nose:

 

Radiant and sensual.

 

The outstanding finesse of the Chardonnay, exclusive varietal of the champagne, with its fragrances of white fruits, citrus fruits and white flowers, is enhanced by generous aromas of honey and pastries, signatures of the maturity of the wines from 2013 and 2016 harvests (in equal parts).

Palate:

 

Magnificent minerality at the opening, the one of the chalk of the Grands Crus of Oger and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger in the Côte des Blancs, underlined by the timely stop of the malolactic fermentation of the base wines.

 

The mouth becomes roundness thanks to the ageing in oak casks, with bâtonnages of 50% of the base wines.

 

With this cuvée Extase and its extra brut dosage, Didier Dzieciuck signs a rare champagne. To discover absolutely.
