Champagne Agrapart Mineral

Made from two different parcels, Le Champ Bouton in Avize GC and Les Bionnes in Cramant GC, where the vines get straight into the chalky bedrock (no topsoil) characterised by the ubiquitous Cretaceous limestone. Minéral has a beautiful pale gold colour and is taut and reticent on the nose with a pronounced chalky minerality cosseting the fruit. On the palate it is slightly salty with a hint of iodine (and becomes truffley with ageing), racy and stylish with a poise and fruit reminiscent of grand cru Chablis.
