Agrapart "Pascal Agrapart" N.V. Champagne Extra Brut "Complantee", Avize

Enjoy this dry, rare, meticulous Champagne with friends. It comes from a field blend of dry-farmed estate-grown Chardonnay, Arbane, Petit Meslier, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Meunier, Pinot Noir planted in chalky limestone and clay soils.  Pascal Agrapart uses indigenous yeast in the fermentation, then barrel ages this cuvée, after which it is bottled unfined and unfiltered.  An original from one of our store's long-time favorites.

"This has a pretty nose of white flowers, daffodils, blanched almonds, lemons, white grapefruit and salted peanuts. Bright and full of personality with very fine bubbles. Open and vibrant. Made from a field blend of 6 varieties, co-fermented in barriques."--James Suckling
