2017 Champagne Pascal Agrapart "Vénus" Brut Nature, Blanc de Blancs, Grand Cru

Pascal Agrapart is the maestro who has catapulted the house of Agrapart to the Champagne stratosphere over the last two decades. He's a gifted winemaker as well as a technical vintner—no wonder his terroir driven bottlings are highly sought after around the globe. Pascal's oldest son, Amboise has joined in managing just under 10 hectares of holdings in the Côte de Blancs. Production is always kept at an artisanal level to ensure the highest possible quality–the Agraparts were early adopters of organic farming

What truly stands out for these bottlings is their penetrating depth and chiseled structure that is a direct result of tending to old-vine holdings, some of the oldest in the region.

A vintage cuvée made from a single, 0.3 hectare vineyard named La Fosse that was planted in 1959. It is located in the middle of the hillside and has both the chalk of the hillsides at the top of the parcel and the heavier clay over limestone at the bottom. The soils are tilled by a horse named Vénus. The wine shows stunning depth and richness combined with exceptional freshness and minerality.
