Champagne Agrapart & Fils 2011 Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Mineral Grand Cru

Elevate your champagne experience with this iconic Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs from Champagne Agrapart & Fils, crafted exclusively from Chardonnay grapes sourced from two legendary Grand Cru vineyards in Champagne’s heartland. This refined blend captures the essence of Avize’s Les Champboutons and Cramant’s Les Bionnes, where deep limestone soils nurture vines over four decades old—ensuring unparalleled minerality and complexity in every sip.

Tasting Notes:
This 2011 Mineral Grand Cru dazzles with vibrant citrus zest and delicate floral aromas, framed by a crisp mineral backbone that dances across the palate. While its structure reflects the cooler nuances of its vintage, it avoids vegetal undertones common in some 2011 Champagnes—a testament to Agrapart’s meticulous winemaking工艺. A seamless blend of 2013 and 2014 harvests disgorged in May 2017 ensures freshness while allowing subtle oxidative character to develop elegance over time.

Terroir Excellence:
Planted on slopes rich in chalky limestone bedrock ( Craie à Marnes Blanches), these century-old vines yield grapes brimming with tension and purity. The wine’s luminous clarity mirrors its terroir’s reflective soils—perfect for celebrations or quiet moments of reflection paired with oysters Rockefeller or buttery sole meunière.

Why It Stands Out:
– Vinous 91 Points: Recognized as a standout among its peers
– Age-worthy yet approachable: Balances youthful energy with cellar potential
– Sustainable craftsmanship: Reflects Agrapart’s commitment to preserving Champagne’s heritage

At 12.5% alcohol, this champagne strikes an ideal balance between vibrancy and restraint—whether enjoyed as an aperitif or alongside refined cuisine. A rare gem in our Fine & Rare collection, its exclusivity ensures your toast will always feel extraordinary. Availability may vary; cherish this timeless expression of Champagne terroir while it lasts.
