Canard-Duchêne "Charles VII - Grande Cuvée le Victorieux" Brut Champagne

SKU #1142787 91 points Wine Enthusiast

Outer quote mark Rich, with a hint of toast, this floral wine, with its almond blossom aromas, is drier than many other bottlings from this producer. It has a crisp, tight texture, with a mineral edge as well as a firm structure that suggests it is still young, so drink from 2018. (RV) Inner quote mark (12/2017)

K&L Notes

This is a blend of 40% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay and 30% Meunier is sourced exclusively from Grand and 1er cru villages in Champagne. It is composed of 30% reserve wines and aged over four years on the lees. This excellent bottle of Champagne has a lot to offer with tête de cuvée texture, Verzenay hazelnut character and a great finish. (Gary Westby, K&L Champagne Buyer)

Country:

France

- When it comes to wine, France stands alone. No other country can beat it in terms of quality and diversity. And while many of its Region, Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne most obviously, produce wine as rare, as sought-after and nearly as expensive as gold, there are just as many obscurities and values to be had from little known appellations throughout the country. To learn everything there is to know about French wine would take a lifetime. To understand and appreciate French wine, one only has to begin tasting them.

Sub-Region:

Champagne

- The French region of Champagne (comprised of the towns of Rheims, Epernay, and Ay) was the first region in the world to make sparkling wine in any quantity. Today, the name of the region is synonymous with the finest of all sparkling wines, and winemaking traditions of Champagne have become role models for sparkling wine producers, worldwide. Surprisingly, the region of Champagne is now responsible for only one bottle in 12 of all sparkling wine produced. Styles of champagne range from the basic brut (often blends of several vintages), single vintage champagnes, and rose.
