Pommery Grand Cru Vintage 2009 Champagne 75cl

The year 2009 has been described by some as a “gift from the gods”. Nature gave us an ideal summer: hot, dry and very sunny. Everything came together to harvest very large grapes.

The bunches were in exceptional health, without any alteration. The juices from this harvest presented a natural balance close to perfection. Coming from seven emblematic grands crus of the House, this vintage is anchored in history by the nobility of its origins.

EYE - Pale gold with delicate golden nuances, signs of elegance and maturity. Exceptional shine. Effervescence of great finesse.

NOSE - The first notes are floral and sweet and reminiscent of honeysuckle and acacia flower. As it opens, 
the wine reveals fruitier nuances of dried fig but also frangipane.

MOUTH - Very straight and with exceptional minerality, the velvety structure of the wine is reminiscent of Champagne chalk. The balance is perfect.
