2010 Champagne Penet-Chardonnet, Les Fervins, Grand Cru, Verzy, Extra Brut

Description

Champagne Penet-Chardonnet’s Les Fervins is another rare gem of the region: 2010 yielded several special vintage releases across Champagne, of which this is one. Unusually, vines were a mix of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, located in a hallowed site signposted by an ancient metal cross. It is this cross that gives this domaine its emblem. The two types of grape were harvested and vinified together, encapsulating the unusual terroir. The wine spent 11 years on lees.

Critics reviews

Jancis Robinson MW 17.5/20

Really rather broad and it approaches the nose as a cloud not a rapier. Hint of putty and lots of minerals. Very zesty but with good undertow of ripe fruit with the Pinot Noir obvious. Really quite fruity. Good stuff!
