Annonce Belair Monange Vintage:2019 charming Blanc de Blancs is

charming Blanc de Blancs is drinking beautifully today

Aged in older barrels and not yet bottled

This is firm enough that while it could be enjoyed young

this is a powerful Champagne of considerable presence that needs some more time on cork to unwind and round out

This is also quite heavily reduced though the energetic flavors display an attractive mineral streak that continues onto the solidly intense finish that is given form by the relatively fine tannins in the context of a villages level wine

Annonce Belair Monange Vintage:2019 charming Blanc de Blancs isThe 2018 Annoncethe second wine of Chateau Belair Monangehas a medium to deep garnet purple color and compelling notions of Morello cherries, black raspberries and baked plums, with hints of pencil lead, bay leaves, damp soil and spice cake. The full bodied palate delivers seriously impressive freshness with a fine grained texture and bags of juicy red and black fruits, finishing long and spicy.
