Description

The Champagne Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru “Cramant” by Dhondt-Grellet embodies the purity and elegance of the Grand Crus of the Côte des Blancs. Made exclusively from Chardonnay sourced from the renowned terroirs of Cramant, this wine reveals a precise and mineral expression of its origins, enhanced by careful and traditional craftsmanship.

Blend

100% Chardonnay, carefully selected to express the mineral and crystalline qualities of the Cramant terroir, bringing refined aromatics and a balanced structure.

Tasting Notes

Appearance: Bright golden hue with green highlights, featuring fine and persistent bubbles that exhibit delicate and elegant effervescence.

Nose: A complex and expressive bouquet marked by fresh citrus aromas such as lemon and mandarin, complemented by floral notes of honeysuckle and linden blossom. The characteristic minerality of Cramant brings nuances of chalk and flint, while hints of almond and brioche add depth.

Palate: Crisp and lively on entry, with a creamy texture and beautiful tension. Citrus and white fruit flavors unfold harmoniously, supported by persistent minerality. The finish is long and pure, with saline and lemony notes that impart an intense freshness.

Aging Potential

Ready to enjoy now for its freshness and radiance, or to be cellared for 5 to 8 years to allow its aromas to develop in complexity.

Food Pairing

Perfect for pairing with refined seafood such as oysters, langoustines, and shellfish. This Champagne also pairs beautifully with fine fish like sea bass or turbot, and harmonizes elegantly with delicate cheeses like brie or aged comté.
