Chardonnay Terroirs Package 6 bottles
€298.00
Chardonnay is perhaps the grape variety in Champagne through which the influence of terroir can be experienced most clearly. Chalk, sand, clay, exposition and microclimate give the wines very different tension and texture depending on their origin. This package invites you to compare six distinct interpretations of Chardonnay from different regions of Champagne side by side.
From the chalk dominated soils of the Mont de Berru, through the great Grand Cru vineyards of the Montagne de Reims and Côte des Blancs, to the lesser known Chardonnay terroirs of Montgueux, the Côte de Sézanne and the Vallée de la Marne, each bottle reveals a different facet of the grape variety.
The question is not which wine is the “best”. Far more fascinating is discovering how differently Chardonnay can express itself when its origin is allowed to take centre stage. Sometimes taut and chalky, sometimes generous and ripe, sometimes saline and linear, sometimes with greater richness and almost Burgundian character. Together, the six Champagnes form a small map of Chardonnay across the Champagne region.
