Description
WINEMAKER: Pascal Agrapart
REGION: Champagne, FR
VARIETY: Chardonnay
VITICULTURE: Biodynamic
Limited. 100% Grand Cru, with the fruit sourced only from great sites across four revered villages in the Côte des Blancs: Avize, Cramant, Oger and Oiry. Together with the terroir, vine age is a key factor in quality. The average age of the plantings is more than 50 years. “Creamy and flavorful, yet it remains precise and vertical, with an array of lemons, green apples, pie crust, almonds, hazelnuts and chalk. Medium-bodied with creamy, fine bubbles. Lots of energy, with zesty citrus notes at the end. Layered blanc de blancs.” 95 points, James Suckling
Grower champagne of intensity, purity and finesse, Pascal Agrapart produces no more than 6000 cases a year in one of Champagne’s finest regions. The chalky subsoil of the Côte des Blancs, which consists of fossilised belemnites (an extinct cuttlefish), imparts minerality and salinity; while the high limestone content aids photosynthesis whilst reflecting and storing heat, increases acidities and retains moisture.
Pascal works according to natural rhythms and sensibilities without the use of any chemical pesticides or herbicides, always ferments with indigenous yeasts to express terroir, however is uninterested in the labels of organic or biodynamic.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
