NV Champagne Hure Freres L'Invitation Extra Brut 'Ludes'

Reserve Wine 2020

Light and juicy, full of creamy lemon yoghurt with yellow plum and baked pasty notes.

Bright with balanced acidity that gives the expression a slightly sharp and tangy edge

but it’s also round and long too. Excellent detail on show, perfect to enjoy as an

aperitif, but will also match well with food. Crisp citrus elements mingle with green

apple, buttery toast. The texture is full and nicely filling with energy, freshness and lift

the whole way through. A subtle hint of sweetness at the end gives contrast to the

citrus fruits and leaves you wanting more. A blend of 40% each of Pinot Noir and

Meunier and 20% Chardonnay aged for 36 months on the lees. 91Pts Decanter
