Chartogne-Taillet N.V. Champagne Brut "Sainte Anne", Merfy

This estate was founded in 1683 and is now a bit of a cult classic for grower Champagne junkies. Made from 40% Chardonnay, 40% Pinot Noir and 10% Pinot Meunier, that while not certified the winemaker has a tremendous respect for the land and practices as responsible farming as possible. The fruit here is so creamy and luscious. Layered and bursting with citrus caramel and baked bread. A huge crowd pleaser that also speaks to the Champagne aficionado. Super class act.
