Champagne Griffon-Trichet Brut Blanc de Blancs

Terroir

This beautiful Blanc de Blancs is born from Premier Cru Chardonnay vineyards in the Montagne de Reims, planted directly on pure chalk. The chalky soils are key, giving the wine its signature brightness and minerality. Meanwhile, the sunlit slopes bring a lovely roundness and texture. It's a perfect expression of Chardonnay grown in the region, offering tension and a creamy, long finish.

Producer

Griffon-Trichet is a small, family-run grower estate that crafts each cuvée in tiny quantities. They age the wines patiently on their lees to build depth and finesse. The goal is to create Champagnes that feel truly alive in the glass, balancing elegance and generosity without sacrificing clarity.

Wine

Made entirely from Chardonnay, this cuvée is bright and pure. Aromas of lemon curd, white flowers, and toasted almond jump out, followed by subtle hints of chalk and brioche. The palate is fresh and focused, with fine bubbles and a finish that seems to glow with energy. It combines delicacy with real presence, the hallmark of a great Blanc de Blancs. Best enjoyed now through 2029, as it will gain even more roundness and subtlety with age.

Vintage

This is a 2020 Vintage Champagne. The wine benefits from an extended period of aging, resting 48 months on the lees before disgorgement. This long contact builds exceptional texture and complexity while retaining the vintage's inherent structure and vibrant freshness.

Pairing

Ideal with oysters, grilled prawns, fresh crab or soft cheeses like Brie and Tomme.

Serving

Serve chilled, ideally between 9 to 11 degrees. Giving it a few minutes in the glass allows the fine bubbles to soften and the wine's inherent elegance and fruit aromas to fully blossom.

Assemblage

100% Chardonnay
