Winemaker’s notes:
Charles Ellner Carte Blanche Brut Champagne NV is an elegant and subtle blend, fresh and fruity with floral hints, perfect as an aperitif.

Critical Acclaim:
“Austere in structure at first, with rapier acidity. The flavors of black currant, slivered almond, white peach and candied lemon peel are intense and tightly knit, expanding on the palate and lingering on the vibrant, spiced finish.”  91 Pts – Wine Spectator

“Vivid yellow. Aromas of redcurrant, orange zest and white pepper, with a smoky quality in the background. On the palate, supple red berry and pit fruit flavors are given lift and cut by a hint of dusty minerals. Rich yet lively wine with solid finishing punch and lingering spiciness.”  90 Pts – Stephen Tanzer’s IWC
