100% Chardonnay from a single vineyard site in the Grand Cru village of Avize, planted predominantly in the 1960s on distinctive clay and silica-chalk soils. This old-vine parcel delivers a Champagne of both power and finesse, combining the incisive mineral tension of Avize with added textural depth and breadth. The wine was vinified and matured for 11 months in 228L French oak barrels (ranging from new to 2–5 years old), before undergoing an extended 48 months sur lie ageing in bottle. Disgorged in January 2024 with zero dosage.

The Grape

Blanc de Blancs

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.
