J Lassalle Cachet D'Or Brut Reserve

$46.00

Grower Champagne made from Premier Cru fruit, blended in equal parts Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Munier from stellar female winemaker Angeline Templier in Chigny-Les-Roses.  Hand harvested, native yeast fermentation, bottled on its fine lees for 3 years before disgorgement.  Bright white fleshy pear fruits, fennel, cirtusy acidity, dry, clean and crisp, a wonderful introduction to grower Champagne.   
Three generations of women preside over this Champagne house, in the village of Chigny-Les-Roses, comprised of 11 hectares of Premier Cru vineyards. The Cachet d'Or is a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier in equal parts, aged for 36 months on the lees before disgorgement. The wine has a giving, fruit-forward style and is an easy drinking and ultra-affordable alternative to the more ubiquitous brands that shall go unnamed.
