Produced in very tiny quantities by one of our favorite, newly-discovered (at least for us!) grower-producers, ‘Les Rocheforts’ is an elegant Blanc de Blancs with very low dosage. Bright, lemony acidity leads to a leesy palate with notes of brioche and a long, mineral-driven finish. Stunning! Food Pairing Celebrations, oysters, caviar, sushi

The NV Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Les Rocheforts Premier Cru was picked in the eponymous parcel in Bisseuil in the Marne Valley. A creamy, nutty and slightly smoky nose portrays ripe Golden Delicious apple. The palate is vivid with apple freshness and a juiciness that unites ripe apple flesh with lemony crunch and vigor. Frothy mousse is energetic and swings lemon about, there is something deeply satisfying about the briskness and clean-cut tautness of this wine, despite all its youthfulness.
