Blend: 100% Chardonnay sourced from Vertus, Chouilly, Pierry, Monthelon, Beaunay, Épernay and Moussy.
Vintage 2021: a particularly rainy year marked by strong disease pressure, resulting in low yields. However, this limited harvest allowed for excellent grape concentration, producing wines with remarkable aromatic potential. Harvest began on 15 September, with an average potential alcohol of 10.5°C.
Vinification: fermentation and maturation of 80% of the wine is done in stainless steel and 20% in oak (large wooden vats). Fermentation with natural yeasts. The dosage is 4 g/l of sugar.
Ageing: over four years of ageing on the lees.
SERVING RECOMMENDATIONS
Food pairings: scallop duo, radish and cress.
Cellaring: this champagne can be enjoyed now or cellared for up to 10 years. Serve between 8-10°C.
BEHIND THE LABEL
The genesis: a strong disease pressure at the end of the growing season raised concerns about a difficult harvest. Yet once the Chardonnay grapes reached the press, they revealed exceptional aromatic potential, thanks to the concentration brought by low yields, fully restoring the promise of the vintage.
The vision: To craft a Blanc de Blancs true to the Mandois style: a pure, precise Champagne combining freshness with roundness on the palate.
The Cellar Master’s comments: The 2021 vintage marks the arrival of Maximilien De Billy at Maison Mandois. For him, this Blanc de Blancs symbolises his first encounter with Claude Mandois and the trust placed in him from the very beginning.
