Tasting Notes

"Longitude" is a refined blanc de blancs, hailing exclusively from the eminent Chardonnay terroirs of the Côte des Blancs: Vertus, Oger, Avize, Cramant, all aligning near the 4th meridian. Expertly crafted and aged on natural lees, its meticulous vinification manifests in exceptional depth and precision. The wine's inherent minerality, heightened by a subtle dosage, crescendos into a chalky finale.

Reviews and Accolades

AWARDS & ACCOLADES

Robert Parker

Another lovely wine from Larmandier-Bernier, the 2017-base NV Extra-Brut Blanc de Blancs Premier Cru Longitude was disgorged in April 2020 with three grams per liter dosage. Mingling aromas of citrus oil, green apple and pear with hints of white flowers and fresh bread, it's medium to full-bodied, elegantly enveloping and precise, with a more mineral, chiseled profile than the Latitude bottling. As I've written before, this is one of the finest non-vintage bottlings to be found in Champagne, and it comes warmly recommended.

James Suckling

The striking, crushed-chalk and lemon aromas here are so pure. The palate has a very smooth, crisp and fresh array of attractively vibrant, dry, lemon flavors. Long, pure and dry.

Larmandier Bernier

Larmandier-Bernier, as lauded by Andrew Jefford in his seminal work "The New France," stands as one of Champagne's elite, ranking among the top 5 growers. At the helm of this meticulously managed estate are Pierre Larmandier and his partner Sophie. Their domain now spans 15 hectares, primarily situated in Vertus, at the southernmost tip of the Côte des Blancs. Anchored in the principles of biodynamic viticulture, their vineyards are a testament to their unwavering commitment to sustainability and the environment. Much like their contemporaries, Larmandier-Bernier continually evolves, ascending to ever greater heights. Their wines, ever since, have remained true to their signature vitality and profound minerality, and now, they possess an even greater depth, complexity, and layers of flavor. Larmandier-Bernier is a shining example of a producer unrelenting in their pursuit of excellence, where tradition and innovation converge to create remarkable Champagne.
