The Agrapart wine estate, established in Avize since the late 19th century, is one of the iconic wine estates of the Côte des Blancs. Now run by Pascal and Fabien Agrapart, it embodies an artisanal style that is sincere and deeply attached to the expression of the terroir. The vines, almost exclusively located in Grands Crus, are cultivated with meticulous care and each plot is vinified separately to reveal its uniqueness. In the cellar, fermentation takes place using indigenous yeasts. The wines are neither fined nor filtered and the dosage is relatively low.
The Complantée d'Agrapart cuvée is one of the wine estate's most original and emblematic expressions. Produced from a single plot in Avize planted with a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Pinot Blanc, Arbane, and Petit Meslier, it pays homage to the ancient traditions of Champagne.
In the glass, the color is a luminous light gold with slightly green highlights and delicate bubbles. The nose opens with a bouquet of great aromatic complexity, blending white and yellow fruits such as pear, apple, and mirabelle plum with notes of red berries, citrus zest, and sweet spices. With aeration, delicate herbaceous nuances and subtle notes of white flowers appear. On the palate, the attack is precise, straightforward, and vibrant. The body is slender, supported by a lively acidity that brings energy and freshness. The aromas blend harmoniously: crisp white fruits, lemon zest, hints of red berries, fresh almonds and a marked salinity that is characteristic of the chalky terroir of Avize. The finish is long, chiseled and persistent, with citrus notes.
Agrapart Complantée is characterized by its unique character, purity of expression, and singular interpretation of the Champagne terroir: a lively, precise, and deeply authentic champagne.
