Champagne Larmandier-Bernier Longitude Premier Cru Extra Brut

Wine

This exquisite Blanc de Blancs is based on choice Chardonnay vines from the premier cru vineyards of Vertus, Oger, Avize and Cramant. The seductive Longitude presents itself as a skilful blend of slightly different wines from up to nine vintages, with 40% consisting of older reserves. The expert ageing process of more than two years on its lees, followed by the removal of the lees and a minimal dosage of four grams, underlines the masterful craftsmanship that goes into this creation.

Color

The visual experience begins with a pretty, bright gold hue and a vibrant mousse that entices you to drink.

Nose

As soon as the wine is opened to smell, it reveals a rich aromatic palette. Elegant and perfectly balanced in its complexity, it seduces the nose with fine spicy notes, underpinned by brioche, white flowers, stone and stone fruit, citrus notes and a chalky component. These elements come together coherently and stimulatingly, resulting in a complete olfactory delight.

Palate

On the palate, the Longitude is incredibly generous and lush, so that it is hard to believe that the dosage is moderately low. Despite its astonishing maturity, the wine remains dry, dynamic, clear, fresh, precise and elegant. The yellow citrus fruits are striking, accompanied by a hint of herbal spice. The acidity balances out the opulence of the reserve wines and creates a remarkable tension between the ripe, deep, expansive and the young, precise and simple Chardonnay of the Côte des Blancs. What is most remarkable is the long, deep, harmonious and well-executed finish, after which the name "Longitude" is appreciated.
