Philippe Lancelot Les Hauts dEpernay Extra Cuve 2019 channels fourthgeneration grower heritage from Cramant, focusing on high, chalkrich slopes above pernay that historically deliver tension, lift, and pristine fruit purity. Handharvested Chardonnay leads the blend, with a judicious touch of Pinot for breadth. Grapes are gently pressed, fermented with indigenous yeasts, and matured on fine lees for texture and nuance; an extrabrut dosage keeps the vintages energy vivid while letting terroir detail shine.

Tasting Notes

Aromas of lemon zest, white blossom, pear, and crushed chalk open to layers of green apple, quince, and almond cream. The palate is precise yet generous, carried by a fine, persistent mousse and racy acidity into a long, salinemineral finish thats both elegant and refreshing.
