Telmont Reserve Brut Champagne
Champagne, AUSTRALIA
Heady aromatics combine with a palate that’s rich, full and expansive.
A blend of 40% Chardonnay, 29% Meunier and 31% Pinot Noir with 2020 the base vintage (66%), the balance made up of reserve wines. An exuberant mousse slowly fades into a pale straw coloured base that has hints of pale gold around the edges. Streaming through it’s core is a fine, nimble bead. Heady aromas of baked bread, yeast lees and brioche fill the nostrils with some baked pear, cashew and toast notes are also evident. Rich, full and expansive, the palate sees baked bread, yeast lees and citrus flavours meld into a delicate back drop of cashew, baked pear and chalky oyster shell like elements. Mouth watering acidity lends tension to the long bone dry finish.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
