Pannier 2005 Blanc de Blancs Brut Chardonnay (Champagne)

Country: France / Champagne
Variety: Chardonnay
Winery: Pannier / Blanc de Blancs Brut

A young vintage wine, this is very crisp and citrusy. It has a strongly tannic texture, and is bright with a sharp edge of acidity. There’s a forward steely, mineral character and a dryness that offers promise for several years’ aging.
