Description
Extra brut Champagne of finesse and minerality signed Agrapart
Champagne Mineral Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Extra Brut 2018 by Agrapart is an elegant and territorial Champagne, made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes sourced from Grand Cru parcels. It is a cuvée that interprets the Blanc de Blancs style with great precision, combining tension, complexity, and a marked chalky imprint, ideal for those seeking a refined and authentic Champagne.
Territory and wine style
The selection comes from the best soils of Avize and Cramant, two reference crus of the Côte des Blancs, areas renowned for their ability to produce wines with strong mineral expression and aromatic brightness. The parcel vinification, carried out in barrels and tanks, enhances the identity of the individual plots and helps build a complex, precise, and harmonious profile. The prolonged aging on the lees, combined with a very low dosage, contributes to a dry, tense, and defined style, in which clarity and depth emerge.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents with an intense straw yellow with golden reflections, animated by a fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, it offers an articulated and mature bouquet, with hints of honey, candied apricot, and chamomile, followed by sensations of vanilla and brioche. The sip is coherent and dynamic, supported by a lively freshness and an elegant chalky trace that accompanies the entire drink. The structure is present but calibrated, with a very successful balance between creaminess, sapidity, and mineral tension, leading to a long and refined finish.
Recommended pairings
This Champagne Mineral Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Extra Brut 2018 pairs effectively with seafood crudo, oysters, fish tartare, shellfish, and mollusk-based preparations. Its complexity also makes it suitable for more structured dishes such as delicate game birds, seafood risottos, foie gras in small portions, or high-quality soft cheeses. Its minerality supports seafood cuisine, while the more evolved aspect pairs well with fine and flavorful recipes.
Serving temperature
Serve Champagne Mineral Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Extra Brut 2018 at an ideal temperature of 8-10 °C. If possible, uncork shortly before serving to preserve its aromatic tension and the finesse of the perlage. It does not require decantation but can benefit from a few minutes in the glass to best express its complexity.
