An elegant Blanc de Noirs Extra Brut from Champagne, Contraste #3 is a pure expression of Meunier grown in the Vallée de l’Ardre. The wine opens with a poised, lively attack that unfolds into refined notes of yellow fruits and flowers, underlaid with a persistent saline thread that speaks of its terroir.
