Champagne René Geoffroy - New Arrival!
 
H&H Bancroft is delighted to be able to introduce you to our newest arrival - Champagne René Geoffroy.
 
Based to the north of Épernay, René Geoffroy has 14 hectares of vineyards in 45 parcels, with 11 hectares in Cumières, 1 hectare in neighbouring Damery and 2 hectares in Fleury-la-Rivière.
 
Their vineyards are composed of 40% Pinot Noir, 40% Pinot Meunier and 20% Chardonnay, all farmed without the use of herbicides. They only use the juice from the first pressing (the Tête du Cuvée) using natural yeasts for the fermentation. None of the wines undergo malolactic fermentation.

The Wines
 
We are pleased to be able to introduce you to three of the finest cuvées from this family owned Champagne house.
 
Premier Cru Expression Brut NV
50% Pinot Meunier, 40% Pinot Noir, 10% Chardonnay
Clean, fresh but restrained nose, with zippy apple flavours and ripe red fruits on the palate. A dry, crisp aperitif style, but with some breadth.
 
Premier Cru Empreinte Brut NV
88% Pinot Noir, 12% Chardonnay
A very expressive champagne, very rich but still racy, with complexity, very good ripeness and a fresh finish.
 
Premier Cru Millésime 2000
70% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir
A full bodied, toasty wine, with great depth and complexity, apricot, ripe apple and red fruit flavours, bready, yeasty notes and an elegant structure.
