CHAMPAGNE SPIRA

CHAMPAGNE SPIRA

  • BLANC DE BLANCS | PLOT | PREMIER CRU

Its sharp vibe, its saline tension and its great purity make this wine as minimalist as it is impactful.

A great breath of terroir that goes straight to the palate, a flush of fresh air on a chalky background, characteristic of Vertus. The signature of our favourite plots.

TASTING NOTES

  • THE NOSE

    A sea breeze. An expression of purity, with intriguing aromas: graphite, charcoal, charcoal drawing, pencil lead… A chalky expression that speaks of the Vertusian subsoil. The clear minerality leans towards flint and orchestrates it all.

  • PALATE

    It’s taut, it’s fine, it’s just as pure as the nose. Candied citrus fruits bring an elegant sweetness, slightly spiced, enhanced by cinchona and orange peel. The minerality is also present here with its palate salinity and the bitterness in the finish that holds the wine well. Simple and minimalist… for once.

FOOD PAIRING

A variety of oysters and shellfish (razor clams, clams, whelks…)

Seared scallops for a burst of freshness

Grilled fish, richly saline, to enliven weekend meals
