Region: Marne Valley, Champagne, France
Grape varietal: Pinot Meunier
Alc: 12%
The Producer
There are two types of Champagnes: big brands and farmers. Francis Orban is the latter, and an extremely meticulous wine-maker. His Domaine sits in the small town of Leuvrigny, in the heart of the Marne Valley, known among experts as being the best place to source Pinots for premium Champagnes. Francis specializes in Blancs de Noirs (made only with black grapes). He favors a lighter and racier style and is obsessed with getting the finest bubbles.
Tasting Notes
Beautiful red fruit bouquet dominated by cherries and wild strawberries with notes of red currant. Great balance and freshness with a pleasant vinous character. Superb pairing abilities.
Pairings
An ideal companion for red-fruit desserts, but also great with roasted pork or chicken.
