This is the Blanc de Blanc Grand Cru with fruit sourced from Avize, Chouilly, Cramant, Mesnil-sur-Oger from mostly the 2017 vintage and some from the 2016 vintage. Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The NV BdB Grand Cru pours a light straw color with a persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is youthful with notes of tart fruit: green apple, star fruit, split almonds, limestone minerals. On the palate, the wine is bone dry with high acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. This is super fresh and easy to love, in the house style. Drink now but could easily be cellared for years. Disgorged Q2 of 2023.

Sipping Fine Wine
This Chardonnay cuvée comes from 5 grand cru vineyards of the Côte des Blancs: Avize, Chouilly, Cramant, Mesnil-sur-Oger and Oger. It is a blend of 2 different years of Chardonnay. Pouring a glass I saw a pale golden yellow, fine bubbles with a tantalizing mousse and an intense bouquet of ripe fruits and toasted scents. The palate shows creamy flavors of white flesh fruits, with chalky mineral, lemons with some sweetness. The wine was elegant, well balanced with bright acidity, mineral tangy finish. Nice!
