Blanc de Noirs Grand Cru

This blanc de noirs is the flagship cuvée of Mailly Grand Cru. The house relaunched it in 1988, drawing on the tradition of the northern slopes of the Montagne de Reims. The Pinot Noir comes from the house's best parcels in the Mailly grand cru. At the Mondial du Pinot Noir the cuvée was awarded the "Vinea d'Or".

The nose combines spice, violet, undergrowth, mirabelle plum and pear. On the palate the wine is rich and powerful yet finely drawn, with a silky texture. Citrus notes bring freshness, joined by toasted exotic fruit and ripe wheat. The finish is long and lively. At the table it suits foie gras, seafood, fish and more robust cheeses. Serve it at 10 to 12 °C in a large white wine glass that gives its fullness space.
