Description
An expressive bouquet of butter, mouth watering citrus and fleshy white fruits. The Pucelle is one of our favourite Domaine Belleville white wines, with a beautiful structure and impeccable balance on the palate. The complex palate shows a surprising mellowness backed by toasty notes and a very classy touch of minerality on the long, lingering finish.
The grapes for the La Pucelle see a gentle pressing and the must is left to settle for 12-24 hours before a slow and full alcoholic fermentation takes place in different size oak casks at cool temperatures. The wine is then blended and matured in oak casks for a period of 10-18 months with the proportion of oak used varying depending on the vintage. Lees stirring in barrel encourages both body and freshness.
Domaine Belleville was created in Rully at the beginning of the 20th century and has 22 hectares of vineyards spread throughout Burgundy. They produce an impeccable range of wines which have a true sense of place and provide delicious drinking.

NV Brut, Champagne Germar Breton, Aube
Champagne Blend
This delightful, and rather smart looking, Champagne comes from the relatively young Champagne House of Germar Breton that was established in 2005. Based in the southerly Aube region, they make approachable, terrific value wines from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. This wonderful introduction to their range shows expressive brioche, green apple and quince fruit and has wonderfully balanced acidity.
