Champagne Blanc de Blancs package

Three champagnes made from white grapes only, all three 100% Chardonnay, and yet no two bottles taste alike. The difference comes from the place and from the cellar. In this package you taste Chardonnay from the chalk of the Côte des Blancs, from clay over chalk in the Vallée de la Marne and from silt and clay in the Petite Montagne de Reims.

Henry de Vaugency ferments his Tradition entirely in stainless steel, La Villesenière does the opposite and puts Les Cuteries entirely in oak, and Simon Rion shows what Chardonnay can do in an area where you would not expect a Blanc de Blancs. They are three family-run houses, each with a style of its own. The package also makes a lovely gift for anyone who loves Blanc de Blancs.

• 
  Champagne Henry de Vaugency Tradition
  100% Chardonnay from Oger, Grand Cru in the Côte des Blancs, from vines averaging fifty years old. Made entirely in stainless steel with full malolactic fermentation: airy and fruity, with apple, pear and white flowers.
• 
  Champagne La Villesenière Les Cuteries 2017
  100% Chardonnay from the Les Cuteries plot in Boursault, where a thin layer of clay lies over chalk. Made entirely in oak, with full malolactic fermentation and 3 grams of dosage: rich and creamy, with ripe pear and roasted almond.
• 
  Champagne Simon Rion Blanc de Blancs 2022
  100% Chardonnay from Courmas, on silt and clay. Hand-harvested and unfiltered, with full malolactic fermentation that rounds off the naturally high acidity of the Petite Montagne. 2022 was a sunny year, which gives a full, generous wine.
