100% Chardonnay from the Grand Cru village of Avize, sourced from three tiny parcels rooted in thin, chalk-rich soils, including one site bordering Agrapart’s Robarts vineyard and another near Selosse’s famed Chantereines. Planted to massale-selection vines at extremely narrow 1.1m spacing across just 0.35 hectares, this is a strikingly site-specific expression of Avize. The wine was vinified and matured in 228L French oak barrels (ranging from new to 2–5 years old), before spending 48 months on lees in bottle. Disgorged in January 2024 with zero dosage.

French for “white of whites”, Blanc de Blancs is a sparkling wine made entirely from Chardonnay grapes. Made famous in Champagne, these wines have an incredible purity and linearity about them and express with intense lemon and apple-like fruit flavours, usually with an underlying seam of minerality and precise acidity.
