    NV Benoit Dehu "Cuvee Initiation" Blanc de Noirs Brut Nature (Champagne, FR)

    While Benoit Dehu's name gained prominence in the last five years, the Dehu family's Champagne house has deep roots, dating back to its founding in 1787. Benoit proudly represents the eighth generation of growers for this small house nestled in the Vallée de la Marne.

    The NV (2017) Initiation is a captivating and exotic wine. With notes of apricot, orange confit, hazelnut, spice, and chamomile, the 2017 vintage exudes a decidedly exotic character. It appears that this wine will reach its peak sooner rather than later, showcasing a forward profile with hints of honeyed notes emerging over time. Comprising 78% Pinot Noir and 22% Meunier, Initiation undergoes vinification in oak and is bottled with no dosage, highlighting its pure and unadulterated expression.
