Blanc de Blancs: The Purity and Finesse of Chardonnay Champagne

Blanc de Blancs means white from whites — Champagne made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes. The result is typically lighter, crisper and more mineral than blended Champagnes, with citrus, white flower and chalk aromas. The Cote des Blancs, with its chalk-rich soils, produces the finest examples. These wines age gracefully, gaining brioche and almond notes.
