Elegant and taut, Champagne Thevenet-Delouvin's Chardonnay Extra Brut highlights the richness of the Marne Valley terroirs through a pure expression of Chardonnay. This Blanc de Blancs seduces with its aromatic precision, silky texture, and mouthwatering finish. Produced in only 3,000 bottles, this confidential cuvée is a true signature wine.
The Chardonnay Extra Brut cuvée is made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, selected from the first pressings. The grapes come from several carefully selected crus:
The grapes are harvested by hand at peak ripeness during the harvest and carefully sorted. Pressing is carried out on a Bucher pneumatic press, with precise fractionation to extract the best juices. Alcoholic fermentation takes place mainly in oak barrels, with partial malolactic fermentation to preserve freshness.
After a minimum of 30 months' aging in the bottle, the cuvée is dosed at Extra Brut at 4 g/L, revealing all the purity of the fruit and the energy of the terroir.
The color of Thevenet-Delouvin Chardonnay Extra Brut is light yellow with green highlights, crossed by a fine and elegant effervescence.
The nose is expressive and developed, revealing notes of ripe yellow fruit, almost honeyed. The maturity of the fruit is evident from the first whiffs.
On the palate, this cuvée reveals the typical acidity of Chardonnay, supported by a creamy, indulgent texture. Notes of stone fruit, refreshing tension and a salty, mouthwatering finish.
The price of a bottle of Champagne Thevenet-Delouvin Chardonnay Extra Brut is 32,95 €. Its limited production of 3,000 bottles makes it a rare cuvée that Blanc de Blancs enthusiasts who appreciate precision and expressiveness should not miss.
Connoisseurs praise the balance between tension and richness, as well as the artisanal signature of this cuvée. Read reviews of the Chardonnay Extra Brut cuvée.
Enjoy now to appreciate its freshness and minerality, or keep for up to 5 years in good conditions to explore its growing complexity. Serve between 42°F and 50°F in a tulip glass.
The Chardonnay in this cuvée comes mainly from the family plot in Passy-Grigny, the historic heart of the estate. A discreet tribute to the heritage of previous generations, subtly revealed in every glass.
This is an original cuvée because the Chardonnay grapes are grown here on heavier soils (Marne Valley) than the chalky soils of southern Epernay. The result is a cuvée that is smooth, long, refined, and elegant, with little minerality or acidity. This makes for cuvées that are accessible quickly and, above all, very typical of their production area.
The Blanc de Blancs currently on offer is from the 2006 harvest and is an unclassified vintage.
The winemaking techniques are similar to those used for the Prestige cuvée, namely: production from the first pressings and aging in stainless steel vats for part of the wine and in oak barrels for the rest.
Light dosage at 6g/L.
Tasting
By Patrick BorrasThe Chardonnay cuvée produced by Thevenet-Delouvin has a golden color with pale golden highlights. Its bubbles are fine and beautifully intense.
This wine offers a discreet and subtle nose, floral at first, then evolving into more fruity citrus notes (fresh grapefruit).
On the palate, it is a fresh and well-balanced champagne, with powerful bubbles and beautiful liveliness.
This Blanc de Blancs is refined and delicate, making it the perfect champagne to add a touch of freshness to your desserts. I recommend serving this cuvée at a temperature of 9°C.
