Champagne Andre Beaufort Polisy Blanc de Blancs 2018

Drink it now or cellar for up to 15 years. No need to decant. Located in Ambonnay, the Champagne House Andre Beaufort has been cultivating its vineyards organically and using homeopathic and aromatherapy remedies since the 1970s. Today, the estate, which extends over approximately 6 hectares of vineyards, is managed by Andr and his son. A special feature of the estate: disgorging is always done traditionally "a la vole". Andr Beaufort's Polisy Blanc de Blancs Millsime is made with Chardonnay from the village of the same name located in the Cte Des Bar, about 40 km southeast of Troyes. Here, the vines are influenced by the climatic conditions of the Langres plateau, with cold and humid currents, while the soil is clayey from the Kimmeridgian and more difficult to work. This elegant champagne reveals a straw yellow color with golden reflections brightened by a fine and persistent perlage. Its aromatic profile is fragrant and fresh with fruity notes of citrus and white flowers, followed by hints of brioche and bread crust. On the palate, it is fresh and balanced, with a creamy texture and a marked acidity. It is lively and mineral with a long finish that recalls pastry notes. It is excellent with roast turbot, fresh cheeses such as Chaource, and, of course, with seafood.
