Laurent Bénard La Clé des Sept Arpents Extra Brut
45.60€ (Inc. VAT bot. 75 cl.) / Spain
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Disgorged in October 2024 with a dosage of 1.3 grams per liter, Bénard’s 2021-based NV La Clé des Sept Arpents, enriched by 55% reserve wines maintained as a perpetual cuvée since 2012, is a blend composed of 70% Pinot Noir, with the remainder evenly divided between Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay. Sourced from three villages—Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, Avenay-Val-d’Or and Mutigny—and vinified in nearly equal proportions of wood and tank, it opens with an expressive bouquet of pear, fresh citrus fruit, early-blooming white flowers and peach. Medium-bodied, vibrant and racy, it features a delicate, pillowy mid-palate and concludes with a citrus-inflected finish. While many 2021 cuvées lean toward austerity, this rendition achieves harmony and balance, thanks in large part to its generous inclusion of reserve wines.
