Merchant's description

De Venoge Louis XV 1996 is a mature vintage Champagne crafted by the historic Champagne house of De Venoge. This blend features predominantly Pinot Noir and is sourced from select Grand Cru vineyards. The 1996 vintage is marked by a warm growing season, resulting in a rich fruit profile characterised by notes of ripe apple, pear and subtle citrus. The wine demonstrates balanced acidity and a nuanced mineral backbone, promising age-worthy complexity.
