Encry Millésime 2015 is a champagne of a single cru, which combines finesse and elegance for a prestigious Gran Cuvée. It is the vintage of Vue Blanche Estelle, the Maison that collects, produces and markets itself, with results appreciated all over the world. The Encry is a surprising discovery of rare pleasures and sublime sensations.
With sulphites.
The vineyards are located in the well-known area of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger (Reims) one of the 17 Grand Crus of Champagne, in the heart of the Côte des Blancs. Enrico and Nadia, companions both in business and in life, are the two Italians who produce champagne with their "vigneron" (a récoltant-Manipulant, reaper-producer aka Cave Chef) Jean Michel. Enrico has always had a great passion for Champagne: thanks to his environmental engineering studies he works on hydroseeding, a process based on the use of sewage seeds and mulch. This technique is applied to steep vineyards in order to prevent erosion and to supply oxygen to the vine roots.
While Enrico works as an environmental engineer first in Tuscany, then in the Champagne region, he has the chance to meet Jean Michel, his future wine producer. Since then, his adventure in Champagne begins. The name, "Encry" is given by the union of Henry's nickname "Enry" and the letter "c" of "champagne".
The Maison is registered as "Veuve Blanche Estelle" and is registered among the récoltants-manipulants, those small producers who collect, produce and market their wines directly. This is why we are able to see the MRI mention on the label. The result: "vins de plaisir", appreciated all over the world, with a wide range of creations for all occasions.
Champagne of a single "cru" (vintage), vinous and with a great character, it combines expressiveness and balanced structure necessary for a good aging potential together with the finesse and elegance of the characteristic blanc de blancs. It comes from a careful and rigorous selection of the best particles of Chardonnay Grand Cru vineyards, vinified and harvested with the utmost care and attention and in compliance with the oldest tradition of champenoise in the Mesnil-sur-Oger area. The first fermentation takes place in thermostatically controlled stainless steel tanks. It undergoes a light 4-week malolactic fermentation which refines its arrival in the bottle where it carries out the second fermentation with the addition of selected yeasts which rest for well over 5 years. Manual remuage "sur le pupitre" and disgorgement in the voleè. A Blanc de Blancs at the same time traditional, because it is an expression of its territory and modern, because it looks to the future by choosing essentiality. The low yields and the great attention to quality offer the market a tiny production, practically a boutique in the world of champagne.
Light yellow, bright and intense, very fine golden perlage that enhances the reflections. The intense aroma and characteristic chalky minerality, elegant, citrus notes of lemon and orange blossom. Biscuit and toast notes thanks to the action of yeasts. The fresh, mineral, dry flavor. The soft perlage leaves a silky patina on the palate. Full-bodied and extremely pleasant to drink.
