Description of Antoine Chevalier Carkonnia Extra-Brut Blanc de Blancs

Estate

Champagne Antoine Chevalier is crafted by the Grands Vignerons of the Champagne region, on the eponymous estate. This property is known for its expertise in producing authentic and elegant champagnes.

Vineyard

The vineyard is located in the Coteaux Vitryats, a sub-region of Champagne famous for its clay-limestone soils ideal for Chardonnay cultivation. The vineyard benefits from a temperate climate and favorable exposure, contributing to the wine's freshness and minerality.

Wine

This champagne is a Blanc de Blancs, made exclusively from Chardonnay. It presents a fine tension and a perfect balance between freshness and complexity. Its extra brut dosage highlights its purity and liveliness, characteristic traits of the 2020 vintage.

Vintage

The 2020 vintage experienced particular climatic conditions, with a hot and dry summer favoring optimal grape maturity. This cru thus reflects a fresh and refined expression of the terroir, with beautiful aromatic concentration.

Vinification & Aging

Winemaking is carefully conducted to preserve the delicacy and typicity of Chardonnay. Aging on fine lees adds a delicate texture and additional aromatic complexity, while the absence or near absence of dosage ensures a natural expression of the wine.

Grape Variety

100% Chardonnay

Characteristics & Tasting

Tasting

  • Appearance: Pale gold with fine and persistent bubbles.
  • Nose: Aromas of citrus fruits, green apple, with delicate notes of brioche and almond.
  • Palate: Lively and elegant, revealing a beautiful mineral freshness with a saline and persistent finish.

Serving

Serve between 8 and 10°C. Decanting is not necessary, but a short aeration in the bottle can help to reveal more aromas.

Food Pairings

This extra brut Blanc de Blancs pairs perfectly with fine Cancale oysters, sea bass ceviche, roasted turbot fillet with beurre blanc, or a 24-month aged Comté cheese.

Occasions

Ideal for important business meals, wedding anniversaries, or exceptional moments during the holiday season.

Aging Potential

Can be enjoyed now but will gain complexity and roundness over the next 5 to 8 years.
