NV Brun-Servenay - Brut Selection

The NV Brut Selection Grand Cru comes across as a bit burly despite its considerable depth. Lemon, white peaches, flowers and minerals are some of the nuances that emerge from this long, delineated Champagne. The Selection is 100% Chardonnay. This is Lot LS 09-11. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2014. Le Brun Servenay is located in Avize, one of Champagne’s Grand Cru villages. The wines are typically broad-shouldered and rich. At times they can be a bit rustic, but when the wilder side is tamed, the wines are striking. A Becky Wasserman Selection, various American importers, including Verity Wine Imports, NJ, tel.
