Fleury Blanc de Noirs Brut NV

An elegant and expressive nose with delicate aromas of white peach, pear, and red apple, as well as some floral notes. The wine has a fantastic balance on the palate with a fresh and vibrant acidity and a wonderfully long finish.

Made from 100% Pinot Noir, this cuvée was originally created in 1955 by Robert Fleury. Every new vintage is added to the previous vintage to create a 'solera-style' perpetual reserve in large casks. Malolactic fermentation is allowed, and the wine is then aged on lees for four years prior to disgorgement with an addition of lean 3.6g/L dosage.

The Fleury domaine was founded in 1895 in Courteron, a village located in Côte des Bar in the southern region of Champagne. Back in 1989 they became the first Champagne producer to be certified biodynamic. Their 10 plots of land covering 15 hectares are planted with 85% Pinot Noir and 10% Chardonnay, with the remaining land growing Pinot Meunier, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Blanc (the latter two a rare sight in Champagne in recent times).
