The wine region of Champagne Grand Cru 'Le Mesnil-sur-Oger'
Grand Cru village at the heart of the Côte des Blancs (Champagne), considered the finest of Chardonnay villages: exclusive signature Chardonnay as Blanc de Blancs king — signature balance and ageing potential with notes of white flowers, stone fruits, fresh croissant and a touch of almond, long chalky mineral finish and elegant energy. Signature draining chalk soils on Cretaceous limestone, east exposure capturing morning sun, min 3 years ageing, home of Salon and Krug.
The wine region of Champagne
World benchmark sparkling wines: fine bubbles, citrusy tension, notes of brioche, toasted almond, white flowers and white-fleshed fruits after ageing on lees. Three grapes blended or solo: fleshy Pinot Noir (38%), fruity Meunier (33%), chiselled Chardonnay (28%). From straight Blanc de Blancs to vinous Blanc de Noirs, from non-vintage Brut to age-worthy Millésimé. AOC since 1927, 34,300 ha on chalk, 17 Grands Crus and 44 Premiers Crus.
The word of the wine: Baco 22A
A white grape variety resulting from the hybridization of the folle blanche and the noah. It is the only hybrid to remain authorized in a French appellation vineyard, that of Armagnac, where it thrives in particular on the tawny sands of Bas-Armagnac. When distilled, its wine produces round, smooth and aromatic eaux-de-vie with hints of ripe fruit.
