Description
Andre Clouet Grand Cru Grande Reserve Brut NV
Varietal: Pinot Noir
The Andre Clouet Grand Cru Reserve NV is 100% Pinot Noir, and entirely from the village of Bouzy. Apple butter, scones, marzipan, orange peel, granny smith, clay, and some baking spices towards nutmeg and clove. The palate is more moderate in weight with golden apples, some clotted cream, and a light hit of citrus. A touch lighter than the last time we put this forth in a club, but still showing quite a bit of Pinot character. D&M Tasting Notes
Andre Clouet (NM: Négociant-Manipulant.) The Clouet family were the official printers to Louis XV’s Royal Court, and that attention to filagreed printing is still evident in the work of the current generation. Jean-Francois Clouet is a bit of a showman and takes great pride in his family lineage. He lives in the house his ancestors built in 1741, with the wines cellared below and Jean-Francois living above. The domaine is comprised of 20 acres of Grand Cru vineyards in the middle slopes of the villages of Ambonnay and Bouzy
