Larmandier-Bernier Champagne Longitude Premier Cru NV

Blog

Pierre Larmandier’s wines are pure and terroir-driven. This superb bottling of the Longitude Premier Cru Extra Brut is composed of 100% Chardonnay sourced from Vertus, Oger, Avize, and Cramant, with 40% of the blend coming from 2010 reserve. Poached pear, baked apple, lemon sorbet, and chalk are slowly released by a clinquant mousse. In the mouth—buoyant shards of fractal light—it’s very subtle, with length held in suspension by limestone, seafoam, earth, and nuanced pear. Sample
