Bonnet-Ponson

Seconde Nature | Bottle 75cl

Description

This Cuvée Seconde Nature from Bonnet-Ponson is a successful balance of freshness and aromatic richness.

This champagne is a blend of 45% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay and 15% Meunier, made with the cœurs de cuvée. The grapes come from the "Les Vigneules", "Les Spectres" and "Les Caquerets" plots in the Montagne de Reims Premier Cru commune. These 30-year-old vines benefit from a south-easterly exposure and are planted on clay-limestone soil and a sandy subsoil rich in fossilized shells.

This cuvée is vinified without sulfites, fining or filtration, in 228- to 400-liter barrels. Malolactic fermentation is carried out, and the wine is aged on fine lees for 9 months. This champagne is not dosed to preserve the wine's characteristics.

On the nose, this champagne expresses beautiful floral notes, followed by scents of spices, citrus and exotic fruits.

The attack is lively, evolving towards a clean, pure mid-palate. On the palate, the structure is vertical, with refreshing citrus notes accompanying the vinosity and fruitiness of the Pinots. The finish lingers on a salivating, chiselled mineral texture.

This fresh, mineral cuvée Seconde Nature is the perfect match for iodized seafood.
