Thienot x Penfolds Blanc de Blanc Gift box 2012

What else but champagne is used to celebrate anniversaries and other big occasions? So what could be more fitting than producing your own champagne for Penfolds' 175th anniversary celebrations in Australia? No, not an Australian sparkling wine, but a genuine champagne. Vinified under the guidance of Penfolds' Chief Winemaker Peter Gago from Grand Cru Chardonnay grapes from Avize at partner Champagne Thiénot. The result is a champagne like a laser beam: extremely pure, extremely precise, with a dosage of just 2 g/l. An experiment so successful that there are now five different champagne lines in the Penfolds portfolio.
