Heurtebise Blanc de Blancs Brut Chartogne-Taillet 2017

The wine

This Blanc de Blancs is produced from sandy limestone soils, which warm up quickly and lend a pleasant roundness to this champagne. The Chardonnay vines are 35 years old on average, and on the palate this wine delivers concentrated elegance and purity. Fermentation is in stainless steel vats and uses native yeasts, without filtration. Dosage is about 5g/l.

About the Producer Chartogne-Taillet

The Taillet family has been settled in Champagne for many generations. The vineyard is located in Merfy, 8 km from Reims, on the Saint-Thierry massif, in the "small" Montagne de Reims. Since 2006, Alexandre Chartogne has taken over from his parents and, in just a few years, has managed to make great progress in the domain thanks to a focus on biodynamics, working on horseback to avoid soil compaction, extensive plot selection and planting vignes franches or free vines. In the cellar, Alexandre works with oak, stainless steel, amphora, and cement barrels. The result: skilfully and carefully made champagne, rooted in its terroir. A domain that continues to progress… follow it very closely!
