Champagne Pascal Agrapart Grand Cru Complantée NV Base 20 Disg. Jun 23

Champagne Pascal Agrapart Complantée comes from a single Avize parcel co-planted with six varieties and picked, pressed and fermented together.

Avize is a grand cru of the Côte des Blancs, and almost all of it is Chardonnay. Complantée is Pascal Agrapart’s look backwards at how Champagne was once planted, before the region settled on three main varieties. The parcel, La Fosse à Bull, lies within the Fosse vineyard that also gives the Vénus cuvée, and is co-planted with Pinot Noir, Meunier, Chardonnay and the heirloom varieties Arbane, Petit Meslier and Pinot Blanc. Chardonnay accounts for a quarter of the blend, with the rest split equally between the other five. The fruit is hand-harvested together, co-fermented and aged in barrel, then bottled without filtration. This release is based on the 2020 harvest with twenty per cent reserve wine from 2019, spent just over two years on lees and was dosed at less than 5 g/L before its June 2023 disgorgement.

Ready now and worth keeping for five years or more. Serve at 8°C with roast pork, grilled asparagus or a plate of soft cheeses.
