Dec 2021","description":"\u003cp\u003eChampagne Larmandier-Bernier Latitude Blanc de Blancs is an extra brut grower Champagne from the southern side of Vertus, here in three-litre double magnum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLatitude is entirely Côte des Blancs Chardonnay drawn from vineyards on the southern edge of Vertus that sit at roughly the same latitude — hence the name, which also hints at the breadth these clay-richer soils give the wine. Pierre Larmandier works with mostly large-format casks, almost all now sourced from Stockinger in Austria; alcoholic and malolactic fermentations run naturally and the wine is not filtered. Bottles are matured on lees for more than two years, disgorged by hand and dosed at extra-brut level, four grams per litre in this case, at least six months before release. This bottling is based on the 2017 harvest, with 40 per cent from a perpetual reserve dating back to 2004, and was disgorged in December 2021. The style is bright and expansive rather than austere, with dried lemon peel, chamomile, mint, sage and almond.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReady now and good for another decade, and the large format will hold it well. Serve at 8–10°C with oysters, roast chicken or a soft-rinded cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
