Derot Delugny — Hors Pair

Hors Pair

Derot Delugny | Blanc de Blancs

Sometimes a champagne is perfect for working too. Morning, sunshine, laptop open, focus on – and the Hors Pair from Derot-Delugny is perfect for exactly that.

Opened without any great ceremony. Simply because the mood was right and the year's tasks deserve to be tackled with a bit more relaxation.

The first impression is a bit austere at first, almost closed off – but no reason to worry. With a little air and time, it opens up beautifully.

Tasting Notes

A precise Blanc de Blancs with fresh citrus notes and clean lines. The acidity is present but well integrated, the style feels clean, calm, and focused.
