Pierre Péters Grand cru L'Esprit 2021 by Pierre Péters comes from four limestone plots in the Côte des Blancs. After three years on the lees, its Chardonnay reveals hawthorn, candied lemon and hazelnut. Fresh, chalky and silky, it offers a saline finish. Cellar through 2034 and pair with seafood.
A family-run house established in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger since 1919, Pierre Péters brings a precise vision to the great Blancs de Blancs of the Côte des Blancs.
- Terroir: Four Chardonnay plots from the Grands Crus of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Oger, Avize and Cramant, on limestone and chalk soils that lend freshness and salinity.
- Winemaking: Slow, fractional pressing followed by fermentation of individual plots in small, temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, creating a lively, precise style.
Tasting notes for Pierre Péters L'Esprit 2021
- Appearance: The luminous pale yellow color with green highlights is enlivened by very fine bubbles and a persistent mousse.
- Nose: Hawthorn, acacia and chamomile open the tasting, followed by candied lemon, apricot and ginger, then a nuance of toasted hazelnut and deep chalky minerality.
- Palate: A fresh, powerful opening reveals a silky texture, precise tension and notes of peach, mandarin and toast, leading to a long, saline, refreshing finish.
Serving temperature: 10–12 °C, in a Champagne glass that showcases the finesse of the bubbles.
2021 vintage
This vintage expresses a Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs that is fresh, taut and elegant, driven by the purity of Chardonnay and the minerality of the Côte des Blancs.
- Aging potential: Until approximately 2034 in a cool, dark cellar with a stable temperature and no vibrations; the cuvée has not yet reached its peak.
