Franck Bonville - Pur Mesnil

We have made this cuvée from a selection of 3 plots, mainly located down the hill of Le Mesnil sur Oger. After more than 5 years of ageing under natural cork, we find it straight, well-structured with a great personality.

The movement starts of light floral, vegetal and vanilla perfumes that awake our senses. An intense freshness, typical of Le Mesnil’s wines, carries this champagne. A rich, coated and smooth mouth cradles it. A gourmet but delicate wine that unveils its shimmering side, without being aggressive, for a frank and dynamic balance.

The fresh and saline long ending resonates all the essence of Le Mesnil sur Oger’s terroir to slowly fade into a chalky memory.
