Thienot Cuvee Garance Blanc de Rouges 2011 Magnum (1.5Ltr)

Thienot Cuvee Garance Blanc de Rouges 2011 Magnum (1.5Ltr)

Alain Thiénot has dedicated this stunning “Blanc de Rouges” blend to his daughter Garance. The name “Garance” signifies a bright, clear shade of red, brings splendour and character to this unconventional Champagne.

Made exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes from Montagne de Reims, this original wine reveals an attractive bead, accompanied by an intense, complex bouquet, signalling great ageing potential.

This is powerful and elegant Champagne, typical of Pinot Noir.

100 % Pinot Noir from Montagne de Reims

Tasting Note:

The nose is fine, with aromas of butter, dried fruits and, after breathing, notes of stewed fruits. It promises good ageing potential.

On the palate, the attack is sharp, with spicy and citrusy notes such as grapefruit. This champagne is full of finesse and subtlety, with body and power, characteristic of Pinot Noir.

Very nice balance between the nose and the mouth, matching freshness and maturity, with an excellent length on the palate.
