This Blanc de Blancs is made from the very first vineyards planted by Nathalie Vignier’s grandparents, Marie-Louise and Paul, in Barbonne-Fayel, Côteaux Sézannais, in the 1960s. This cuvée is 100% Chardonnay, fermented in steel tanks, bottled in April following harvest, and aged 36 months before disgorging. Stately but refreshing, a classic-tasting Champagne and a perfect bottle for the holidays: tastes delicious with shrimp cocktail or cured fish, but also heartier dishes like jerk chicken and collard greens or cooked chard.
