For more than 10 years, this champagne has matured and reached its peak on the lees. At the tasting, the sensations are amazing: we move away from the classic register with a nose close to perfume: sandalwood, musk, new leather, oriental spices, blond tobacco. On the palate, the tension is moderate but largely compensated by a rich and complex aroma, which gives this champagne the character of a great wine.
Larmandier-Bernier Vieille Vigne du Levant comes from an exceptional plot in a place called “Bourron du Levant” facing south-east. The vines are between 56 and over 80 years old. The deep roots and the diversity of the old vines contribute to the complexity of the wine. They are, like all the vineyards, cultivated naturally to obtain the perfect maturity.
Agrapart EXP.19 (2019 Experience) is a selection and blend of 2019 cuvées from old Avize vines. The originality of this cuvée is that it is made only from grapes: indeed the second fermentation is carried out from grape juice from the following harvest.
Avize Champ Cain is part of the Lieux-dits collection of Maison Jacquesson. This is a very confidential Champagne from 1,3 hectare plot of Chardonnay planted on the lieu-dit Champ Cain in the village of Avize. Only 11.328 bottles and 406 magnums have been produced for vintage 2014.
Chartogne-Taillet Hors Serie is a Blanc de Blancs Champagne made from Chardonnay located on the Avize Grand Cru terroir. This Cuvée, which does not follow on from the classic Cuvées Chartogne-Taillet series, is the first dedicated to the Avize terroir.
Chouilly is a vast terroir that can be distinguished in two parts. In the North, the Chardonnays are expressed with more roundness and amplitude. To the east, they have more minerality and tension. This champagne, which reflects the terroir as a whole, is not dosed to appreciate its mineral and citrus identity.
“Les Ribauds” plot reveals an atypical expression of Pinot Meunier: richness and roundness with, in particular, notes of quite ripe red fruits. The silts of the soil soften the clays: we find a certain freshness as well as spicy notes.
The acidity of this great champagne has barely calmed down: under great freshness, it reveals delicately reduced notes of toast and mocha, then the wine opens up and evolves towards aromas of white truffle. This wine has a lot of breadth thanks to the Pinot Noir from Ambonnay and Dizy: in the mouth you can feel an imposing structure, with a lemony zest on the finish.
