WINE DESCRIPTION
Agrapart & Fils' Avizoise Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut is an exceptional Champagne crafted from the esteemed Grand Cru vineyards of Avize in the Côte des Blancs. As a small, family-run domain, Agrapart & Fils is committed to biodynamic farming practices and minimal intervention in the winemaking process.

Aging on the lees in old French oak barrels imparts further complexity, ensuring that this Extra Brut is a true expression of its Grand Cru terroir.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
In the glass, this Champagne exhibits a beautiful pale gold hue with fine, persistent bubbles.The nose offers a captivating bouquet of green apple, lemon zest, brioche, and chalky minerality. On the palate, it is an orchestration of purity and elegance. Crisp notes of citrus fruits and green apples are enhanced by nuances of toasted almonds and a touch of honey. Despite its Extra Brut style, the wine retains a harmonious balance between its vibrant acidity and a delicate creaminess, provided by its extended aging on lees. The finish is long and mineral-driven, leaving a lingering impression of finesse and sophistication. A sublime Champagne for special occasions or as a luxurious treat.
