Champagne Paul Goerg Blanc de Blancs Brut, A.C. Champagne, France
£50.00 – £270.00
Champagne Paul Goerg belongs to one of the few winegrower maison in Champagne. It was founded back in 1950 when 8 families of winegrowers from Vertus decided to join forces and to share together their vineyard. Today, representatives from families Collard, Faucheret, Férat, Rogué, Grégoire, Doquet, Gallois and Pougeoise still have the same passion for Champagne and are actively present at the company’s board. Located in Vertus, in the heart of the famous Côte des Blancs, Paul Goerg’s DNA is Chardonnay. Its unique 120 hectares vineyard is indeed almost exclusively planted with this varietal, a symbol of finesse and elegance. Chardonnay’s elegance and finesse is the prestigious signature of Champagne Paul Goerg.
Tasting notes
This 100% Chardonnay sourced from the premier cru vineyards around Vertus in the Côte des Blancs is a step up in refinement and complexity and shows off the Goerg group’s skill in the cellar. Brilliant pale lemon yellow with a fine, persistent mousse. Classical Blanc de Blancs characteristics of citrus, orchard fruit, and brioche fill the glass. The palate has a satisfying creamy texture. This modestly priced Blanc de Blancs offers length, breadth and complexity.
