Pascal Doquet Le Mesnil Sur Oger Champ d Alouettes Grand Cru 2005 Extra Brut Champagne 750ml

Pascal Doquet Champagne Grand Cru Extra Brut "Le Mesnil Sur Oger - Champ d'Alouettes" 2005 is a refined vintage Blanc de Blancs Champagne made from 100% Chardonnay from the Grand Cru village of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger in the Côte des Blancs. Sourced from the Champ d'Alouettes parcel, the cuvée expresses the distinctive chalk-rich terroir through precision, minerality, freshness and mature Chardonnay complexity.

The 2005 vintage brings depth and developed character while retaining the structural freshness associated with Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. Extended maturation contributes layers of pastry, brioche and toasted nuances, while the Extra Brut style keeps the palate focused, dry and mineral-driven.
