The Champagne house of Agrapart et Fils, located in the lovely village of Avize in the heart of the Cote de Blancs was established in 1894. Unlike many of the smaller grower Champagne houses that have really only recently begun to bottle meaningful amounts of their wine and sell them under their own labels, the Agrapart family has done so since the inception of the domaine in the nineteenth century. To ensure the highest possible quality, production has always been kept at an artisanal level at Champagne Agrapart, with quantities of no more than 5,400 cases produced in any given year. Vine age is amongst the oldest in the Cote de Blancs, with many of the Agrapart's vineyards in excess of sixty years of age, and the average overall age of the vines a healthy thirty-five years of age. Plush peach and honeyed apple aromas are brightened by white flowers and green peppercorn. Fleshy but energetic and dry, with vibrant minerality underscoring fresh peach and melon. Finishes with tangy grip and excellent persistence. Importer Polaner Selections. Bottle Production 5400 cases
