PENFOLDS X Thienot Lot 1 175 Blanc de Noirs , Champagne

PENFOLDS X Thienot Lot 1 175 Blanc de Blanc, Champagne

PENFOLDS X Thienot Lot 1 175 Rose Champagne is a prestigious collaboration between the renowned Australian winery Penfolds and the esteemed Champagne house Thiénot. This exquisite rosé champagne represents the fourth release in their joint venture series, showcasing the expertise of both producers. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this non-vintage brut rosé offers a harmonious blend of Champagne's traditional methods and Penfolds' innovative approach. The champagne boasts a delicate pink hue and likely presents a complex bouquet of red fruits, floral notes, and subtle yeasty aromas. On the palate, it delivers a perfect balance of freshness and depth, with fine bubbles and a crisp acidity that complements its rich fruit flavours. As a limited edition release, this champagne appeals to both collectors and enthusiasts seeking a unique expression of Franco-Australian winemaking prowess.

Only fruit from 7 Grand Cru vineyards is used to craft a blend of equal parts Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, which spends over 4 years ageing on lees plus 6 months post disgorgement. Further gentle ageing takes place until deemed ready for release by the Cellar Master. It displays mature citrus characters, fresh white and red fruits and gentle spice, all linked by a common thread of minerality producing complexity, elegance and length.

The Vintage Brut is white gold in colour with a fine sparkle. The nose displays both mineral and chalky notes giving way to elegant grapefruit and white fruit aromas. On the palate it is lively, the wine has depth with a persistent freshness and notes of bitter orange and lemon on the finish.
