René Geoffroy Volupté Brut Millésime 2016
100% Chardonnay
Selection of the best Chardonnay plots from Cumières:
50% Le Chene (Southeast, very ripe fruit)
50% Tournamidi (western orientation, almost no surface above the chalk)
Average age of the vines: 35 years
All batches are vinified separately, without malolactic fermentation
First fermentation 45% in oak
Tribute to the Chardonnay in Cumieres
Dosage: 2g/l
Nicola OKT23: Volupte 16 is a powerful, dark, spicy release, including exotic fruits, something tart, zesty, lots of body and power.
Tasting OCT21: The 14 is currently still quite closed and very tight, still needs some time.
Tasting FEB20: 2013 is once again a real Volupté - exuberant, expressive, creamy, generous, buttery, but with a lot of finesse on the back, beautiful!
