Tasting notes

Golden with a lively, fine mousse. An unusual nose of pear, quince, dried herbs, white flowers and beeswax, with a chalky undertow. The palate is textured and slightly wild, its orchard fruit cut by brisk acidity and a bitter, almost herbal grip. The finish is dry and persistent, leaving citrus pith, aniseed and chalk.

About this wine

Complantée comes from a single parcel in Avize that Pascal Agrapart replanted with the seven grape varieties still permitted in Champagne, grown together and picked together as growers did before the region settled on three.

The whole mixed harvest is pressed and fermented in oak without malolactic conversion, then aged on its lees and disgorged with almost no dosage. The result tastes nothing like a varietal Champagne: the minor varieties add herbal, floral and spicy notes that Chardonnay alone would never give.

A fascinating bottle and one of the most original wines in the Côte des Blancs.
