We are very excited to offer a pre-sale for Bonnet Ponson's latest kosher release - an Extra Brut N.V. (primarily from the 2015 vintage) that was just disgorged December 2022.
The wine will be here mid February and will retail for $70 (exclusively at The Cellar) after that.
Full bodied and aromatically intense, our signature cuvee draws its identity from the calcareous clay and sandy terroirs of the “petite montagne”.
On the nose, white fruits and citrus melt with candied notes, ripe Mirabelle and nutty aromas. Freshness in the attack, vinosity and structure for the mid-palate, tenderness on the ending.
60% of Pinot Noir, 40% of Chardonnay.
40% of reserve wines (perpetual blending) from the preceding harvests.
