Champagne Pierre Gerbais 2022 Grains de Celles Extra Brut 750ml

The Champagne Pierre Gerbais Grains de Celles Extra Brut is a highly aromatic and expressive grower Champagne from the Côte des Bar, characterized by a unique blend of 50% Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay, and 25% Pinot Blanc. It presents a pale straw color with a fine, persistent mousse and offers a delicate, inviting nose of crisp red and yellow apples, ripe pear, citrus zest, and faint toasted brioche. On the palate, this Extra Brut is remarkably fresh, balanced, and elegant, featuring a creamy texture that is immediately followed by a vibrant, stony mineral tension and a bright, saline finish. The 3g/l dosage ensures it remains bone-dry, yet the inclusion of Pinot Blanc adds a savory, soft complexity that prevents it from being austere, resulting in a lively, well-rounded champagne with lasting finesse.
