Irroy Champagne Extra Brut NV

This champagne has a clear pale yellow colour. The bubbles are soft, fine and discreet. The aromatic and fruity nose reveals notes of white fruit, delicately accompanied by a hint of lily of the valley and smoky flavour. On the nose, it is clear and straight to the point, while the mid-palate phase reveals notes of exotic fruit, mango and yellow grapefruit. The distinctive and expressive finish unveils salty and minty aromas. Champagne Irroy Extra Brut expresses the personality of the fine terroirs of the Champagne region through the balance of its blend. Its aromatic expression and fruity and crisp mouthfeel make it a great champagne for any occasion.

Irroy Champagne house was established in Riems in 1920 and has been owned by Champagne Taittinger since 1955. "It's the rebirth of a brand created in 1820 by the Irroy brothers that the Taittinger house, owner since the 1950s, wants to see shine once again in the firmament. Historically, the wines of this estate have graced royal courts the world over. The reins have been entrusted to two dynamic young men, Maxime Andriveau and Alexandre Ponnavoy, sales manager and cellar master respectively. A rejuvenated, resolutely modern brand, with lively, fruity champagnes in low dosage that will soon find their audience. Particularly well distributed, these champagnes are perfect as aperitifs."
