🏰 The 2020 Georges Laval Champagne 1er Cru Brut Nature Les Chenes comes from a Champagne vintage tipped as the third in a trilogy of high-quality, warm years, resembling the excellent 1988, '89, and '90 vintages in terms of quality, though picked much earlier. The 2020 growing season was generally very successful, yielding grapes in excellent health with great fruit character and complexity. Georges Laval is a renowned grower Champagne producer, and 'Les Chênes' is a 100% Chardonnay from a single vineyard in Cumières, farmed organically since 1971, making them pioneers in natural viticulture. This Brut Nature Champagne, with no added sugar, reveals a sumptuous mid-palate range of fruit leaning towards citrus and honeyed notes, supported by a durable mineral core. Expect a light gold color with fine perlage, fresh citrus notes, green apple, and fine yeast tones, leading to a dry, complex taste with a mineral character and lively acidity. 【 Organically farmed since 1971, a pioneer in natural viticulture 】. 🍴 This vibrant Champagne is an excellent aperitif and pairs wonderfully with fried food, stinky cheese, roast white meats, and fresh seafood. It's also a superb match for rich fish like salmon or tuna, mild and soft cheeses, oysters, light fish dishes, pork, shellfish, crab, and lobster. Consider charcuterie and cured foods as well. 🥂 Perfect for celebrations, an elegant aperitif, or as a sophisticated gift for those who appreciate the purity and complexity of grower Champagnes and natural wines.
