FEATURES
The 2019 Agrapart Vénus Brut Nature Blanc de Blancs is hailed as the "most harmonious wine in Agrapart's strong 2019 portfolio." This magnificent Champagne originates from a tiny, single vineyard plot of 0.3 hectares in Avize, named Fosse aux Pourceaux, planted in 1959. This vineyard is meticulously worked by man and horse, eschewing heavy mechanical machinery, highlighting a commitment to traditional and sustainable practices. It's a vintage-specific Champagne, fermented with natural yeasts in used 600L tonneaux, undergoing 100% malolactic fermentation, and bottled unfiltered without any dosage, truly expressing its terroir. 【 A magnificent single-vineyard (Avize, planted 1959), horse-farmed, zero-dosage Blanc de Blancs Champagne, known for its harmony and terroir expression. 】
On the nose, it offers complex aromas of minerals, nuts, subtle pastry, lemon pulp, and orange blossoms, with hints of crisp Anjou pear, nectarine, blood orange, dried flowers, and freshly baked bread. The palate is full-bodied, layered, and concentrated, underpinned by ripe yet lively acidity and tingling fine bubbles, culminating in a long, chalky, and mineral-laden finish. It's described as elegant, racier, fresh, delicate, and pristine.
Food pairing suggestions: This exceptional Blanc de Blancs is a perfect match for premium shellfish, such as fresh oysters, grilled lobster, or delicate crab dishes. Its minerality and acidity will cut through the richness and enhance the natural sweetness of the seafood. Think of it as a squeeze of lemon for your shellfish.
Event suggestions: An ideal choice for discerning Champagne connoisseurs, intimate gourmet dinners, or any special occasion where a profound, terroir-driven, and artisanal sparkling wine is desired. Its unique vineyard story makes it a fascinating talking point.
