Launois Blanc de Blancs Monochrome Grand Cru Brut Le Mesnil-sur-Oger MV
“Farmer fizz” at its finest, as you all know by now! We just snagged a bit more at a very fine price (we’re in the mood to party!), so take us up on it…only 23 cases to sell!
Belonging to the Launois family for three generations, Champagne Paul Launois remains a traditional house, but with an eye to the future and modern sensibility. Jean Pierre Launois, now with his son Julien and his wife Sarah, carry on the family tradition as stewards of the family vineyard, located in the Grand Cru village of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. In a great turning point of the family story, Julien and Sarah Launois have decided to become a grower producer instead of making their wine at the village cooperative. Their handmade cuvees are as stunning as they are rare. These are wines that leave a lasting impression, at least they did on me!
PAIRING IDEAS: On NYE? We’re dropping a few extra bucks for simple perfection – caviar, on the best potato chip you can find, atop a dollop of creme fraiche. Hedonistic pleasure with a glass of this!
MUSIC SUGGESTIONS: ANYTHING that gets your body moving! Beastie Boys, Green Day, Katy Perry, Sir Mixalot, or Fleetwood Mac, just go for it!
