The NV Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Terroirs exhibits a more pointed and focused interpretation of Chardonnay than the 7 Crus. Energy, vibrancy and superb delineation are the hallmarks of this delicious Champagne. The Terroirs is 50% 2006 and 50% 2005, all from the Grand Crus of Avize, Oger, Cramant and Oiry, with 25% of the wine aged in neutral oak. Dosage was 5 grams per liter. Disgorged: March, 2010. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2015. 90 points - Antonio Galloni for The Wine Advocate (Dec 2010)
“Geological survey of the tiny Champagne villages of Oger, Avize and Cramant would confirm they all share what makes them the finest sources for making Blanc de Blancs (100% Chardonnay) Champagne. Belemnite chalk is the subsoil (Terroir) which seems to be Champagne magic and dates to the Cretaceous period some 70 million years ago. Based in Avize, (2002 Agrapart Blanc de Blancs is 100% Avize chardonnay 59.99) the young and most serious Pascal Agrapart is making exceptional Champagne. The style, with barrel fermentation, is a heavier and richer yet very clean and bright with the complexity rarely found at this price. Artisanal, honest and pure, this wine surpasses in quality a number of champagne names we all know - at triple the price. ” Bob Sprentall, 93 POINTS!
"Mineral and vinous, quite sophisticated, authentic and beautifully balanced with "drive"-- very long and persistent. From Avize. " 93 Points, Rhett Beiletti, B-21
