Bright yellow, bright and clear.
Nose
The nose bridges the gap between citrusy-fruity and salty-jelly notes citronate, the whiteness of lemon and lemon oil mingle with chalky accents reminiscent of wet blackboard chalk and oyster shells. Aromas of cereal and restrained autolysis notes hint at a chalky, stripped-down Champagne pleasure.
Mouth
The cuvée of 5050 Pinot Noir and Chardonnay shows itself wild with tousled hair and libertine attitude. With an upright gait and vintage chic, the Brut Nature 1er Cru from Lacourte-Godbillon is focused, rich in extract and dry as dust. Striking with a wiry stature and vibrancy, it draws attention directly to itself as if it had sprung from a French arthouse film. Slightly smoky minerality and a salty, raspy finish give it a touch of Nouvelle Vague and an eloquent, long finish.
