Reflecting its exceptional Grand Cru terroir, Maison Cazals' Champagne Chapelle du Clos is made from a parcel of Chardonnay planted in 1980 in Clos Cazals, a winegrowing gem located at Oger.
Born of the difficult 2017 vintage - marked by a severe frost and a rainy end to the season - this cuvée is a testament to the adaptability and resilience of this precious Rare vineyard.
Benefiting from prolonged aging on lees for six years in the intimacy of Cazals' vaulted cellars, this Champagne displays unique complexity and depth. Partial integration in oak barrels after fermentation enriches its profile all the more.
To the eye, this wine is distinguished by a brilliant pale gold color with golden highlights, embellished by fine bubbles that rise in a delicate cordon. The nose is complex and intense, exhaling elegant eXOtic and floral notes complemented by a delicate minerality. On the palate, this Champagne confirms its eXOtic character with aromas of lychee and pineapple, accompanied by a lovely freshness. It then reveals aromas of white-fleshed fruit, such as vine peach with a hint of vanilla, carried by remarkable freshness and a long finish.
