Blanc de Noirs

The Blanc de Noirs from De Venoge is the first champagne from dark grapes in the house's range, available since 1988. It is made from the first pressing, 80 per cent Pinot Noir and 20 per cent Pinot Meunier. It ages four to five years in the cellar and develops aromas of citrus fruit, blackcurrant and aniseed. On the palate it is full-bodied, powerful and fresh, with a slight vinosity that gives it character.

Serve it at 8 to 10 °C in a white wine glass that gives its fullness room. It goes well with white meat such as veal or poultry and with foie gras, whose richness its freshness balances. It also finds a good way in with dishes with delicate spice, such as aniseed or citrus. A champagne with substance for the table.
