Chardonnay, Champagne, France

For those new to grower Champagnes, welcome! These beautiful, precise wines come from growers who previously sold their fruit to Big Wine before producing and bottling Champagne under their own Domaine. Fourth-generation Pascal Agrapart is no different, equally attuned to life in his organic vineyards & the cellar, deftly weaving the threads of both into some of the most refined and elegant wines in the Côtes de Blancs. This non-vintage blend of top 2014 and 2015 cuvées (or têtes de cuvée) from 50 to 60-year-old Grand Cru vines in Avize, Oger, Cramant and Oiry with four years on the lees and bottled unfined and unfiltered. Lean, dry and salty-fresh with notes of lemon verbena, tangerine & grapefruit oil that unfurls into rock salt, wet rocks and a whiff of white pepper. Like a streak of light in the sky, this stunning blanc de blancs draws a brilliant arc of flavours that shine brightly in the glass, gloriously harmonious like a 36-part symphony & so incredibly delicious.
