Information about "L'Ormarins Blanc de Blancs 2022"
The L'Ormarins Blanc de Blancs enchants with its vibrant, effervescent bubbles. Aromas of zesty sea spray, lime peel, and chalk intermingle with subtle hints of orange zest, enchanting the senses. On the palate, this wine presents an energetic and refreshing profile, bursting with crisp green apple and a citrusy brightness upon entry. This vivacity is gracefully tempered, leading to a luxuriant yet restrained mouthfeel of creamy citrus fruit and gentle pastry notes, a testament to its time spent on the lees. Refined and elegant, it lingers in the finish, yet maintains its youthful exuberance and an impeccable integration of fruit, yeast, and lively acidity. Beautifully composed, this wine is both vibrant and fresh while being elegantly structured, noble, and admirably long.
The Chardonnay grapes were hand-harvested early in the morning and pressed as whole bunches. The free-run juice and pressed components were kept separate. The juice was clarified and inoculated with yeast for fermentation. Prior to blending, approximately 15% of the Blanc de Blancs was fermented in barriques and aged for 12 weeks. The base wine was then blended and filtered. The Chardonnay was bottled for secondary fermentation and stored at 13 to 15 degrees Celsius, aging for four years on the lees, before being disgorged and matured for an additional eight months before release.
