l'Esprit Blanc de Blancs Brut Pierre Péters 2009

The wine

A blend of four champagnes from four different grands crus (Le Mesnil, Avize, Cramant and Oger) and bottled with only a very small dosage, this cuvée is especially light and delicate. It is only produced in its best years, adding to its rarity. Persistent and elegant, it is perfect to serve as an aperitif or alongside lighter dishes.

About the Producer Pierre Péters

Domaine Pierre Péters has been a family property for six generations. Located at the very heart of the côte des blancs in the village of Mesnil-sur-Oger, just a few kilometres south of Epernay, this 19-hectare domain has been making grand cru blancs de blancs Champagne since 1919. Whilst Camille Péters was one of the first wine makers to take bottles to the market in their own name, his son Pierre was just 12 years old when he went off to various wine salons to develop a clientele. It was in this same pioneering spirit that Rodolphe Péters took over the domain in 2007 with his wife Fabienne, after having trained in oenology and spent 12 years in the viticultural world. The greatest wine tasters certainly haven't let these exceptional wines pass them by: “every single one of these cuvées exhibits a high level of precision. The memorable Les Chétillons cuvée is one of Champagne's best Chardonnays.” These are pure and crystalline wines with irreproachable elegance.
