The Cuvée – Les Chardonnays de Verzy 2022
Exclusively crafted from Chardonnay harvested on the Grand Cru slopes of Verzy, this 2022 vintage reflects the purity and elegance of this unique chalk terroir. The sunny conditions of the 2022 vintage allowed for perfect ripeness, resulting in an ideal balance of freshness, tension, and aromatic expression. This Blanc de Blancs reveals the finesse and minerality typical of Verzy, enhanced by the meticulous savoir-faire of Sacy Sœur et Frère.
Its pale gold robe with silvery reflections is accompanied by fine, persistent bubbles. The bouquet opens with white flowers, fresh citrus, and white-fleshed fruits, underpinned by a subtle chalky touch. On the palate, the attack is lively and tense, marked by Chardonnay’s purity. The texture then unfolds elegantly, offering a refined alliance of lemony freshness, chalky minerality, and a long, saline, precise finish. A Champagne of precision, perfect as an aperitif or paired with seafood and delicate fish.
