Benoit Lahaye NV Brut Nature Grand Cru Biga de Luberri Montepulciano is famous for some"The NV Brut Nature Grand Cru is a blend of 90% Pinot Noir and 10% Chardonnay from Bouzy and Ambonnay. The creamy flesh of Red Delicious apples and a sense of springy, sweet, yeasty challah bread define the nose. The sprightly mousse prickles on the smooth palate, highlighting saltiness and chalky depth with an enticing, beguiling tang of oyster shell. The finish is alluring, salty, tangy and long with a visceral umami echo." 92 Points Anne Krebiehl
