Benoît Lahaye Violaine Brut Nature

Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

Disgorged in February 2019, Lahaye’s 2014 Brut Nature Violaine hails from vines on the Bouzy and Tauxières border characterized by shallow soils and south-facing exposition. Offering up aromas of pear, citrus oil, fresh pastry and wet stones, it’s medium to full-bodied, charming and pillowy, with racy acids, chalky dry extract and a seamless, elegantly integrated profile. This is another cuvée that was vinified and disgorged without added sulfites.
