The Liesse d’Harbonville cuvée is the jewel of Champagne Ployez-Jacquemart. It therefore requires very special attention and is only made in great years. Its vinification is different, while preserving the personality of the vintage.
Made with 66% Chardonnay and 34% Pinot Noir, this prestigious 2005 vintage has an intense golden colour with straw highlights. When served, the effervescence is fine and dynamic. The nose is subtle and expressive. It reveals notes of quince paste, peach in syrup, fresh hazelnut and praline paste. On opening, this Champagne reveals aromas of coconut, marzipan and Amaretto. On the palate, there is a sensation of freshness that dominates the tasting from the opening to the finish. The mid-palate reveals notes of blood orange and badian. The finish is marked by flavours of pink grapefruit and cara melised hazelnuts.
