Cuvee du Clos Notre Dame 2009

Single plot vintage Champagne from our favourite growers Veuve Fourny.  The premier cru plot of Clos du Fauberg Notre-Dame in Vertus is only 0.29 ha (See below).  Chardonnay grapes are hand picked only in the finest years.

Only the first pressed juice is used and is kept in oak casks on its lees for 7 months.

The wine is rested on its lees in bottle for 9 years.

Unblended and unfiltered.

Extra Brut – dosage of 3 g/lt sugar grape sugar syrup.

Only 200 bottles are produced when they make any and we are lucky to have some of them.

As you can see, this “Clos” is not very big!
