The NV Brut Vignes de la Vallée is a blend of 70% 2012 and 30% perpetual reserve that spent a whopping 68 months en tirage. A Champagne of tremendous density and breadth, the Vignes de la Vallée is wonderfully expressive today. A touch of oak in fermentation works so well in bringing out the natural richness of Meunier. Orchard fruit, hazelnut, dried flowers and spice linger on the beautifully shaped finish. Dosage is 5.6 grams per liter. Disgorged: February, 2018. ... More details

Disgorged in February 2018 with 5.6 grams per liter dosage, the latest release of Dehours's NV Brut Les Vignes de la Vallée is based on the 2012 vintage. It's showing beautifully, offering up aromas of woodsmoke, crisp yellow orchard fruit, beeswax, citrus oil and fresh pastry. Medium to full-bodied, textural and enveloping, with a pillowy mousse, racy acids and a nicely concentrated core of fruit, it's a vinous, incisive wine that's seamless and charming.

Varietal: Champagne Blend

There are few areas in the world with a reputation quite as famous and respected as that of Champagne in France, and almost every wine region on earth has imitated or has been influenced by the careful process mastered by the wineries of Champagne. However, it is in the grape varietals which thrive in this region where the secrets to the Champagne's success can be found – the acidic, flavorful Chardonnay grapes meeting the characterful Pinot Noir varietal, and coming together to produce something wonderful in the bottle. There are actually seven varietals allowed by French wine law for the production of Champagne wines, all of which are used by wineries to accentuate each others finest points and maintain the reputation of this very special region, the home to some extremely high quality grapes.

Region: Champagne

There are very few wine regions in the world quite as famous as Champagne, and the sparkling white wines which are produced there are drank and enjoyed all over the globe as a result of their excellent quality, distinctive features and their association with grandeur and celebration. Wineries have been operating in the cool, damp north-easterly region of Champagne for hundreds of years, and over time have mastered the art of making the most of the Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Petit Meunier grape varietals which grow there across the rolling hillsides and kept in the region's unique 'Champagne caves'. Most commonly, these three varietals are blended together to produce the sparkling white wine, but the popularity of single variety Champagne wines are on the increase.
