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

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: Broker
In the past, he was a sort of fraud control agent who had to watch over the quality of merchant wines (he could carry a sword!). His function has evolved towards expertise (it was the brokers who established the famous 1855 classification in Bordeaux) and today he puts the producer in contact with the merchant.
