2013 Champagne Claude Cazals, Clos Cazals, Blanc de Blancs, Vieilles Vignes, Grand Cru, Oger, Extra Brut

Description

The Clos Cazals Vielles Vignes is sourced exclusively from Champagne Cazals’ oldest vineyard. 20% of this tête de cuvée was fermented and matured in barrique, followed by eight years on lees which gives the wine an ample creaminess. The palate is rich with flavours of white flower, gingerbread, tangy citrus, and a mineral depth only found in wines produced from old vines. Young and energetic, this wine needs time in the cellar to show its true potential.

Burgundy is Chardonnay's spiritual home and the best White Burgundies are dry, rich, honeyed wines with marvellous poise, elegance and balance. They are unquestionably the finest dry white wines in the world. Chardonnay plays a crucial role in the Champagne blend, providing structure and finesse, and is the sole grape in Blanc de Blancs.
