Champagne Franck Bonville Pur Oger 2016
$160.00
Champagne Franck Bonville’s origins lie in the Grand Cru village in Oger, In the early 20th century Alfred Bonville purchased vineyards in the village and those surrounding on the condition he could reach the plot within one hour by horse. This laid the foundation for following generations.
Part of the Pur Terroir series, two plots from Oger are selected to express the terroir of the Grand Cru village.
Oger Grand Cru
TASTING NOTE
Vintage
The year 2016 gives sweet and pastry aromas to this blend of 2 plots from Oger’s terroir. An aerial lightness evolves on these first notes, supported by the freshness that we are glad to find on this terroir.
Confectionery aromas and a touch reminding us sour candies give vivacity and come with a fresh ending, rhythmed by liquorice and lemon notes.
Worked by more than 5 years of ageing on lees under natural cork, the balance of Pur Oger 2016 is fully expressed: generous but biting."
