A superb non-vintage bottling that beautifully synthesizes the pure and opulent fruit of top quality chardonnay vineyards in the Côte de Blancs with a racy, structured minerality that gives the wine superb length and cut. It is delicious out of the blocks, but really will easily keep ten to fifteen years.
A mix of 90% Chardonnay and 10% Pinot Noir from 1er and Grand Cru vineyards (from seven villages surrounding Avize
Champagne Agrapart & Fils Description
Fourth generation vigneron Pascal Agrapart runs this historic family domaine in the village of Avize. He is humble, soft-spoken, and fiercely dedicated to expressing the terroirs of his beloved village in his Champagnes.
Vine age is among the oldest in the Côte des Blancs, some in excess of 60 years of age, and there is a steadfast commitment to organic viticulture.
The refined and layered lineup of NV and vintage parcellaire Champagnes reflect the talent and focus of a man who is both gifted as a farmer AND a tuned-in vinifier. This combination makes for some of the most complex and compelling wines in the region.
