Champagne Pascal Agrapart Grand Cru Minéral Blanc de Blancs 1.5L MAGNUM 2019 Disg. Jun 25

Champagne Pascal Agrapart Grand Cru Minéral Blanc de Blancs is blended from two adjacent old-vine plots on the border between Avize and Cramant, presented in magnum.

Agrapart farms around twelve hectares in the Grand Cru villages of the Côte des Blancs, working the soils and vinifying by parcel. Minéral comes from two vieilles vignes sites more than fifty years old where the roots run straight into chalk bedrock: Le Champ Bouton in Avize and Les Bionnes in Cramant. The Avize fruit ferments in tank and the Cramant component in 600-litre oak casks, a split Pascal Agrapart explains as barrels for the expression of minerality and tank for precision. The wine spent more than five years on lees before disgorgement at 3.5 g/L dosage. It is typically the saltiest wine in the range, vinous in the manner of white Burgundy but with an iodine edge particular to the Côte des Blancs.

Drinking now and capable of a decade in magnum, it suits oysters, raw fish or roast chicken. Serve at about 8°C.
