Champagne Yves Ruffin, Premier Cru Extra Brut (1x75cl)

The Champagne house of Yves Ruffin presents a distinguished Premier Cru Extra Brut, a testament to the nuanced terroir of Champagne's classified vineyards. Sourced exclusively from Premier Cru sites, this cuvée reflects a commitment to expressing the inherent quality and distinct character of these elevated parcels.

The Extra Brut designation signifies a minimal dosage, a deliberate choice to highlight the purity of the fruit and the chalk-laden soils without the influence of added sweetness. This approach allows for an unadulterated expression of the region's typicity, focusing on precision, minerality, and vibrant acidity. Crafted via the traditional method, this Champagne is designed for those who appreciate the unvarnished elegance of a truly dry and terroir-driven sparkling wine.

Tasting notes

On the nose, this Extra Brut reveals a delicate bouquet of green apple, lemon zest, and white flowers, underpinned by subtle notes of crushed chalk and a hint of brioche from judicious lees contact. The palate is remarkably crisp and precise, driven by a vibrant acidity that is beautifully balanced by a fine, persistent mousse. Flavours of tart citrus and green orchard fruit lead to a long, mineral-inflected finish, showcasing exceptional purity and a refreshing dryness.
