Porte Noire Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru 2014 – A Refined Expression of Champagne

The Porte Noire Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru 2014 is a sophisticated and elegant Champagne that showcases the quintessential expression of Chardonnay. Grown in the prestigious Grand Cru vineyards of Champagne, this wine reflects the high-quality terroir that produces the best of what the region has to offer.

Appearance:
The wine presents a brilliant yellow hue, enriched with golden highlights. Its clear, luminous colour promises a refined and well-aged Champagne.

Aromatics:
On the nose, this Blanc de Blancs offers an inviting bouquet of crystallised citrus fruits, with a subtle mineral undertone. A slight salinity, characteristic of the chalky limestone soils from which the grapes are sourced, adds complexity to the fragrance, setting it apart from other Champagnes.

Palate:
The palate of the 2014 vintage is an intricate dance of flavours. Fleshy fruits like cherries and plums provide richness, while hints of freshly baked pastry and a tart reminiscent of a tart just out of the oven offer a touch of warmth and comfort. Subtle notes of marzipan lend a soft, nutty sweetness to the overall profile. This Champagne is wonderfully balanced, with the right amount of acidity to give it a crisp and refreshing finish.

Awards & Accolades:
Awarded 92 points by Decanter in 2024, the Porte Noire Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru 2014 is a wine that has garnered much praise from critics, making it a must-try for any Champagne enthusiast.
