The Domaine Agrapart is located in Avize and its 12 ha vineyard is mostly spread over Avize, Oger, Cramant, and Oiry Grands Crus de la Côte des blancs.
The chalky soil, specific to Côte des blancs, enables the Chardonnay grape variety to be worked, especially known for bringing freshness, elegance and finesse to the wine.
Composed of 50 plots, some of which are over 65 years old, the average age of the vineyard is around 40 years. Pascal Agrapart favors the use of traditional methods of cultivation and vinification, and has decided to "parcelize" his cuvées since 1995, selecting three families of soils: one with superficial clay soils, another limestone, the last clay-limestone, all three sitting on the chalky base of Côte des blancs.
Pascal likes to recall: "My father used to tell me: 'You work your vineyard like a garden'."
This Extra-Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne is a Grand Cru, known as Minéral. It is made exclusively from two Grand Cru plots (Les Champboutons in Avize and Les Bionnes in Cramant) located in the Agrapart vineyard and planted over 50 years ago. The wine is aged on lees for between 6 and 7 years in bottles that are riddled manually. Disgorging takes place 60 days before shipment, and the date of bottling and disgorging is indicated on each bottle's back label.
