Guide VERON des Champagnes 2019
(around
34 euros per bottle)
Elegant and bright bottle.
Aspect:
White gold, brilliant.
Very fine bubbles.
Generous tears.
Nose:
Sensual and heady.
Outstanding farandole of scents of white
fruits, candied citrus fruits and white flowers, delicately mentholated,
signatures of the Pinot Blanc, exclusive varietal of the cuvée.
Later, reserved woody notes are unveiled,
subtly roasted and spicy, characteristic sign of the vinification in fine
grained oak barrels, from Allier and Châtillonnais, made with a medium toast
level.
Palate:
Pure opening, thanks to the rigorous selection
of the first juices (cuvée) during
the pressing of the grapes, reinforced by the partial malolactic fermentation
of the base wines and by the dosage with 4 g/L of sugar.
The mouth is revealed ample and warm,
characteristic sign of the 3 years of ageing on laths of the bottles, before
manual riddling and disgorgement.
Dense finish, almost structured and
deliciously spicy.
Remarkable length on the palate.
For this cuvée
the Romane - Pinot Blanc - Extra Brut created in 2015 in homage to Roman,
Michel Furdyna’s father and founder of the eponymous Champagne house, Matthieu
Beroux, cellar master, was able to orchestrate the meeting of vintages, with
70% from 2012 and 2013 and 30% of reserve wines, to sign an unforgettable
champagne.
To taste as an aperitif, or during a meal,
with marinated king prawns and miso, almonds and coconut, for example.
Established in Celles-sur-Ource, in the heart
of the Côte des Bar, the Champagne house Michel Furdyna continues with passion
his quest for excellence. Enlightened by the experience of Michel Furdyna,
Matthieu Beroux cultivates with passion the 9.30 hectares vineyard certified
Terra Vitis since 2010, without weedkillers and with soil preparation since
2003, planted with Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, but also Pinot Blanc, Meunier and
ancestral varietals. An inspired parcelled vinification gives birth each year
to around 85,000 bottles of exceptional champagnes, often rewarded.
