Léguillette-Romelot N.V. "Cepages d'Autrefois" Brut

This latest iteration of the wine formally known as “Festival” draws heavily on the arcane varieties planted in the Clos du Montdorin, a small vineyard situated right at the winery. As such, it is impossible to dismiss comparisons with Aubry. But it stands on its own feet by dint of its seething mass of flavours - white fruits, citrus, salt – and its prodigious length on the palate. It is dosed at 6.5 gm.. It is a blend of 82% 2017 and 18% 2016, vintages that imbue the wine with uncommon nervosity and cut.
