On the nose: notes of almond, orgeat and grapefruit. The second attack on the nose after a few moments is more mineral and iodized with touches of vanilla and toasted brioche with a final of dried flowers and honey.
The attack in mouth is mineral and saline with a creamy expression. The final is long and oriented on chalky touch, a proof of the authenticity of the chalky soils of the Côte des Blancs of the Champagne Region.

JL Vergnon Champagne, five generations and almost two centuries in the same winery, that first welcomed the Regnault Frères House, from which one of the heirs married a Vergnon.
A son, Jean-Louis, was born from this marriage, and in the 1950s he recreated the vineyard on the Côte des Blancs in Mesnil-sur-Oger. He then gave to the House its current name, Champagne JL Vergnon.
His son Alain took over in 1979, currently followed by Didier and Brigitte, with help from a renowned oenologist, Christophe Constant.
Located in the heart of the Côte des Blancs, the Vergnon House elaborates its Champagnes exclusively from grape harvested on vineyards located in Mesnil-sur-Oger, Oger and Avize, all classified Grand Cru and exclusively planted in the Chardonnay variety.
