Paul Launois – Jean-Pierre Launois Composition Extra Brut NV is a blend of 60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir, which gives the wine both elegance and structure. The nose is precise and mineral-driven, with aromas of lemon zest, green apple, and white peach, accented by chalk, crushed oyster shell, and a subtle touch of toasted almond. Hints of fresh bread dough and citrus blossom add complexity while keeping the profile crisp and focused.
On the palate, the wine is taut, energetic, and beautifully balanced, with a fine, persistent mousse and bright acidity. Citrus, pear, and stone fruit flavors glide across the palate, framed by a saline edge and gentle creaminess from time on the lees. The Extra Brut style keeps everything clean and linear, leading to a long, refreshing finish marked by minerality and precision, making this a Champagne that invites another sip with every glass.
