2020 Blanc de Blancs

Elegant and precise, our 2020 Blanc de Blancs is a celebration of purity and patience. Crafted exclusively from Chardonnay and matured for six years on lees, it showcases remarkable complexity and finesse, balanced by a whisper of sweetness from its low 2g/L dosage. In the glass, it shimmers with a pale straw hue and a fine, persistent bead. The nose is lifted and expressive, revealing layers of lemon curd, crisp green apple, toasted brioche, and crushed almond, underscored by subtle hints of oyster shell and flint—a nod to its extended maturation. The palate is taut and refined, with a pristine acid line that drives length and freshness. Citrus zest and white peach interplay with savoury autolytic notes—think sourdough crust and hazelnut—offering depth without weight. The finish is long, chalky, and mineral-laced, tapering to a delicately dry close that lingers with grace. This méthode traditionnelle sparkler is drinking beautifully now, yet has the structure to evolve further in bottle. A perfect pairing with freshly shucked oysters, tempura zucchini flowers, or a quiet moment of celebration.
