De Venoge Princes Blanc de Blancs Brut

R1,989.00

Tasting note:

“This Champagne shows wonderful mineral notes & great ageing ability. Its freshness and elegance are underlined by subtle aromas of white flowers and citrus. It will enchant your Aperitif or pair nicely with a light starter.” – Winemaker

“Dense and layered blanc de blancs with dried lime and lemon curd. Full-bodied with lots of pie crust and cooked apple. Creamy bubbles” – James Suckling – 92pts

“The grapes come from Mesnil-sur-Oger and Trépail, two villages of the Côtes de Blancs sector ranked respectively as grand cru and premier cru. The bouquet is elegant and toasty, with aromas of pear, dried flowers and white fruits. On the palate, it is pure and clean with a certain delicacy and florality. This cuvée becomes even more elegant with a little air, which brings out a fleshy texture. 100% Chardonnay with a dosage of 6g/L.” – Decanter – 93pts

The history of the Maison De Venoge begins in 1837 when Henri-Marc De Venoge founded the Maison De Champagne De Venoge in the French municipality of Mareuil-sur-Ay. A man of innate entrepreneurial skills, De Venoge is the creator of the first ever illustrated label in the history of Champagne, in 1838. And again: when the maison chooses the blue ribbon of the Knights of the Order of the Holy Spirit as its emblem one of the most iconic labels of all time, the Cordon Bleu. La Maison de Venoge has been a worldwide ambassador for Champagne for over 180 years with refined products of absolute excellence.

Alongside the Champagne, the symbol of the Maison, the Princes cuvées designed in 1858 in honor of the Dutch royal house stand out for the elegant bottle that recalls the decanters used by the European aristocracy to serve Champagne in the early 20th century century. At the top of the range, the Louis XV cuvée is produced exclusively from grapes from the best Grand Cru villages and only in the best vintages.

The House is located on prestigious Avenue de Champagne, at number 33, facing the magnificent wrought iron gate of the former Hôtel Gallice, restored in 2015 by Maison de Venoge.

Blend: 100% Chardonnay
