N/V La Colline Inspirée, Jacques Lassaigne

Strictly limited to 6 bottles per customer

Emmanuel Lassaigne is one of Champagne's most exciting growers. He is hotly tipped by critic William Kelley for his "powerful and vinous but also racy and electric" style of wines. He owns just 3.5 hectares of old vine Chardonnay in the unsung village of Montgueux in the Aube, and his wines have done much to put this region on the map. In 2002 he had just two customers, so to have gone from there to now be recognised as one of Champagne's greats is no mean feat. He neither fines or filters, and uses very minimal sulphur dioxide. Unlike the majority of his cuvées, La Colline Inspirée is vinified and aged in oak, and the resulting wine has a fabulous weight and depth to it.
