The history of the young French Maison ENCRY is marked by courage and a strong desire to make an evolved cuvée that’s elegant, dynamic and fresh. Champagne Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Millésimé is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes. Mature, it speaks of the rows, noble plots and vineyards that have their roots firmly in a truly unique terroir. Its brilliant gold colour is simple, bright and captivating, streaked with an extremely fine and elegant perlage. Its harmonious aroma speaks for itself. This characterful Champagne reveals an extensive tasting profile: yellow peach, ripe mango, papaya, tobacco, pecan nut and chamomile. On the palate, it has a direct behaviour, elegant, at times slightly austere, and defined by a wonderful and ever-present vein. It unfolds without filter or superfluous elements, it is decisive, fragrant and enticing. The sensation is full and three-dimensional, each component coming together to form a solid and convincing expression. There’s a lot happening in this rich and decisive Champagne. Very rich and strong, the chalky, rugged and severe terroir of Mesnil sur Oger is used as a means to dilute the savoury mineral sensations, filtering them through the white freshness of its chalky structure.
