Lacourte-Godbillon

Chaillots 2013 | Bottle 75cl

This champagne has a deep golden yellow color with old gold highlights, a limpid, sparkling color. Its bubbles are fine and discreet.

The nose of Cuvée Chaillots 2013 is very complex, with aromas of ripe yellow stone fruit, even hints of fruit brandy. A floral touch of white flowers, hawthorn and thyme completes this rich aromatic palette.

Silky, rich and intense on the palate. On the palate, the wine is powerful and vinous, punctuated by fresher, more mineral notes that give it depth. The richness and power of Pinot Noir are nuanced by the tension of vintage and terroir.

This is a cuvée of immense precision, remarkably combining the expression of pinot noir and the personality of the terroir. I recommend serving Chaillots 2013 at a temperature of between 9 and 10°, as an aperitif, but also as an accompaniment to shellfish. Lobster from Brittany, for example, is a wonderful match.
