Description

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.

A Chardonnay in perfect balance

The Chardonnay Extra Brut cuvée is made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, selected from the first pressings. The grapes come from several carefully selected crus:

  • Passy-Grigny – Right bank of the Marne Valley, on clay-limestone and clay-sand soils.
  • Cerseuil and Troissy – Left bank, where the clay rests on limestone bedrock.
  • Grauves (Premier Cru) – South of Épernay, on the chalk of the Côte des Blancs.

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.

Anecdote about this cuvée

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.


Presentation of Isabelle and Xavier Thevenet

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.

On the palate, it is a fresh and well-balanced champagne, with powerful bubbles and beautiful liveliness.
