Black currant

One of the better wines (and also reasonably priced) to emerge from this property over recent years

but also tense

with scents of mature fruits

2020 | Henri Giraud PR - Perpetual Reserve Brut | Champagne Vigneti Massa Black currantThis has so much energy and vivacity and refined, vinous character.

One third perpetual reserve of cuvee MV and two thirds perpetual reserve of cuvee Esprit. 96 Pts James Suckling
