Maison Agrapart & Fils, founded in Avize in the late 19th century, now extends over twelve hectares on the Côte des Blancs, eight of which are classified as grand cru. A family farm, it has maintained the status of récoltant manipulant. On a vineyard with 65 parcels, the vines (Chardonnay alone) are on average 40 years old. This very fine domain is particularly popular with wine lovers and is gaining fame: the cuvées produced by this sought-after maison are increasingly difficult to find! They stand out for their great finesse, mainly thanks to the low dosage and the fine minerality of the wines.

A vintage cuvée, this blanc de blanc is the quintessence of Chardonnay’s terroirs of choice: Cramant and Avize, areas with similar characteristics and shallow, chalky soil. Maturation takes at least 3 years with disgorgement taking place two months before the wine is put to the market. The dosage is limited to 3g sugar/litre. This cuvée has particularly lively bubbles. The nose suggests delicate aromas of white fruit that carry through to the palate.
