Charles Heidsieck Blanc des Millénaires 2014 creme-de-cassis The mouthfeel is of savoury

The mouthfeel is of savoury roundness threaded with mineral nerve finished with a touch of spice and sweet liquorice root

The wines loves the previous winter rains

Fermentation commenced in stainless steel but some of the Marsanne and Viognier finished fermentation in and was aged in barrel until bottled in early August

Well worth laying down
