ULLENS Champagne "Casse-Tete" NV
$136.00
Wine Region: Champagne - France
Grape: Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier
Tasting notes: “Casse‑Tête” (puzzled) reflects the complexity of the vintage, challenging at first, harmonious once assembled.
Extended aging: 8 months in small wooden barrels, then 30 months on lees in the bottle. It’s hand-riddled, unfined, and unfiltered.
Exceptionally fresh, opening with a clean, focused profile and the distinctive spice of Meunier. The palate then broadens into a softer, juicier finish. Vibrant, complex, and full of character.
About the winery:
Created in 2012, the Domaine de Marzilly is located near Hermonville, in the Massif de Saint-Thierry, the northernmost region of Champagne. It is in this place favourable to the cultivation of the vine that Champagne Ullens finds its origin.
The plot cuvées are exclusively vinified in oak barrels. Out of passion and respect for this historical material, they make their own barrels from the trees in their park.
