2016 Paul Dethune Blanc de Noirs Les Crayeres

The 2016 Brut Blanc de Noirs Les Crayères Grand Cru is a pure Pinot Noir from Ambonnay. Melted butter and ripe Red Delicious flesh come with an edge of saltiness. A beautiful almond bitterness lends shape and accentuates both the freshness and the richness of the Pinot Noir. The freshness and poise win the day on this elegant cuvée, with delicate foam and a noble and most appetizing bitterness. Reserve this for the table. This Blanc de Noirs is long, lasting and elegant.
