Varietal notes: 90% Chardonnay 10% Pinot Noir -- Organic: Practicing -- Vineyard: 100% of the fruit comes from estate-owned parcels located in each of the seven villages in the Côte des Blancs: Avize, Oger, Oiry, Cramant, Avenay Val d'Or, Bergères les Vertus, and Mardeuil. (70% Grand Cru, 30% Premier Cru) -- Orientation: Multiple parcels, varied exposure -- Soil: predominately limestone and clay -- Viticulture: Practicing organic; use of high quality organic composte for the soils and vines; all fruit is hand-harvested. -- Following 100% malolactic fermentation, one-quarter of the wine is aged in older (more neutral) 600L casks, the remainder is aged in stainless steel tanks. Dosage is 7 grams/liter. SO2 is 50 mg/l. -- Aging: Sur lie for 24-36 months. -- Production: 4,200 cases/year -- Notes: In selecting the best grapes of all seven villages, Pascal Agrapart has succeeded in demonstrating the fundamental character of Cótes des Blancs in one cuvée...with a 10% splash of Pinot Noir.

NV  Henri Dosnon Brut Rose

90% Pinot Noir - 10gr RS -- From chalky soils 30mi north of Chablis

NV  Brut

Brut -- "As always this is an intellectual lady-librarian with, shall we say, an ooh-la-la taste in undergarments, and perhaps a fetching tattoo hidden beneath them. You think it's "correct," it starts to vamp, you think it's "sexy," it starts to admonish you with its elegance and command. 46% CH, 45% PN and 9% Mareuil still PN (from '06); the blend is 70% '07, 30% '06. 12/09 disgorgement. This is an extroverted rendition of this always-delicious Rosé. It's almost giddy, silky, with crisp diction, yet baby, what ripe berries are in this basket."

NV  Expression

70% Pinot Meunier, 20% Chardonnay, 10% Pinot Noir. True to it's name, this three grape blend is highly expressive on both the nose and palate, especially when compared to many of the other options available for the same price. Rated 92+pts by John Gilman, this punches well above it's weight.

"ON THE PALATE - Sleek, intense, lively, racy. Persistent flavours of dried fruit with a precise fine texture. -- ON THE NOSE - Opens on a floral note followed by aromas of candied grapefruit peel, hazelnut and spices." - Dom Perignon Official

NV  "Cuvee Prestige"

The Duc de Romet Brut is a Blanc de Noirs of Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. It’s 75% Meunier and 25% Pinot Noir. The vineyards are entirely from the village of Vandières which is along the Marne River, a few villages west of Cumières. Vandières has the same rating as Merfy, where Chartogne-Taillet is located, but the parcels here are situated in a south-eastern facing amphitheater around the village, much like Oger, which allows the grapes to become very ripe. The Duc de Romet is a delightfully balanced Blanc de Noirs made from purchased grapes from small growers in the village. This is a ND (Négociant-Distributeur), which means this is a blend from the different growers in the Vallée de la Marne who do not produce their own Champagne. The grapes are sent to the local co-op where they are fermented; one of our producers does the final blend.

NV  Rose (Lombardy, Italy)

40% Pinot Noir, 50% Chardonnay & 20% Pinot Blanc. Dry. Franciacorta is a lovely alternative bubbly. A delicious sparkler for casual celebrations, fresh, lively, with a delicate, lacy froth that dances across the tongue. Very pretty petal pink color.

NV  

100% Chardonnay. A little black dress in a bottle, a very classy Champagne. The fine mousse shows its good breeding & the beautiful gold packaging makes a gorgeous presentation on the holiday sideboard or in a Champagne bucket.

2016  Frizante

Their flagship sparkling rosé is made from 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Petit Manseng. Bled Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from the younger Daumas Gassac vineyards. The "free-run" grape juice is fermented in a closed tank so as to retain all the fermenting gas. Aged 3 to 4 months in closed stainless steel tank.
