2009 Champagne Agrapart Venus Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature

Product Description

Tasting Note

From a tiny a 0.3 ha horse-ploughed plot in Avize, this is fermented in oak and is a much more savory, aldehydic and almost shows a cidery, sherry-like style with lemon pith and almond husks. It delivers an almost sour nose – right at the extreme of the style. The palate has depth and richness and really sails along with a sherbet-like acid texture. There’s handy depth and weight before it chisels fine through the finish. The nose and palate deliver very different impressions; it tastes vastly more elemental than it smells. Contradictory. 92 points. Drink now.
