Penfolds Champagne Cuvée Brut

Penfolds Champagne Cuvée Brut

NV | France | Champage

Description

Penfolds meets Champagne. This Cuvée Brut NV is the result of a bold collaboration between Penfolds and Champagne House Thiénot, marrying French precision with Australian flair.

Bright florals—lily, chamomile and white petals—float from the glass, joined by hints of orange blossom, yuzu and citrus zest. The palate opens with Tarte au Citron meringuée, raspberry pastille and nougat, finishing with vanillin warmth, subtle brioche and a clean, lively acidity.

Crafted from 45% Pinot Noir, 35% Pinot Meunier and 20% Chardonnay, sourced from distinguished Champagne vineyards, this wine is elegantly poised as a fresh, modern aperitif with structure for complexity over time.

Cellaring Recommendations

This Champagne is designed for freshness, energy and immediate drinking. Enjoy now for its floral lift, citrus brightness and fine mousse. It can also develop positively over the next 2–3 years, but this is not a bottle that needs long-term cellaring.
