How to serve it
Tasting notes
Straw yellow with a fine, persistent mousse. The nose combines ripe citrus, white orchard fruit and brioche with saline and herbal hints. The palate is creamy and generous yet taut, driven by fresh acidity and a chalky texture, leading to a long, mineral finish with a touch of salinity.
About this wine
Larmandier-Bernier is a family grower in Vertus, in the Côte des Blancs, and one of the pioneers of natural farming in Champagne: no chemicals since 1992, biodynamic practices from 1999 and organic certification in 2003 across its 18 hectares of vines, averaging 35 years of age.
Latitude is a Blanc de Blancs made entirely from Chardonnay grown on the southern slopes around Vertus. Grapes are harvested by hand, fermentations start spontaneously with native yeasts in large Stockinger casks, and the wine rests for two years on its fine lees before release, unfiltered and with a low Extra Brut dosage.
It is a generous yet precise Champagne that shows the ripe, saline side of Côte des Blancs Chardonnay.
