Aurélien Lemaire Les Terres Jaunes Brut Nature V20 from Aurélien Lemaire, a Blanc de Blancs from Boursault’s clay-limestone soils, offers apple, citrus, and almond aromas after a year in barrels. Lively, chalky, and saline, it can be cellared for 5 to 7 years. Pair with oysters and fine fish.
An artisanal Champagne winegrower based in Boursault, Aurélien Lemaire makes low-intervention, single-plot cuvées.
- Terroir: The clay-limestone soils of Boursault, at the foot of the slope in the Vallée de la Marne, give Chardonnay a lively, chalky, saline expression.
- Winemaking: Fermentation with native yeasts and no added sulfur, followed by aging in oak barrels before bottling for secondary fermentation without dosage.
Tasting notes for Aurélien Lemaire Les Terres Jaunes Brut Nature V20 2020
Appearance: Its lively, clear, pale-yellow color and light texture are enlivened by fine bubbles.
On the nose: Green apple and citrus open a fresh bouquet, followed by floral, sweet spice, almond, and pastry notes, with a smoky, saline, limestone touch.
On the palate: A lively opening combines the Chardonnay’s tension with precise texture, chalky minerality, and woody depth, leading to a focused, silky finish marked by salinity.
Serve at 10–12°C in a white wine glass to preserve the finesse of the bubbles and its aromatic expression.
2020 vintage
Here, the 2020 vintage stands out for a taut, mineral expression of Chardonnay supported by barrel aging.
- Aging potential: 5 to 7 years in a cool, dark cellar with a stable temperature, away from temperature fluctuations and vibration.
