Made from mature vines grown on chalk-rich soils, it shows lemon, green apple and white peach alongside citrus peel, white flowers, toasted almond and subtle pastry notes. The 2019 vintage gives the wine generous fruit and concentration while retaining the mineral freshness and precision associated with Agrapart’s terroir-focused style. Disgorged in July 2024, extended lees ageing has added further depth and complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eOn the palate, it is medium to full-bodied and beautifully textured, with vibrant acidity, fine persistent bubbles and layers of citrus, orchard fruit and delicate stone fruit. Lemon and green apple are complemented by white peach, citrus zest, almond and gentle brioche notes, while a pronounced chalky and saline mineral character provides tension and length. Subtle savoury and nutty nuances develop through the mid-palate, adding depth without overpowering the purity of the Chardonnay. The finish is dry, long and persistent, with lingering citrus, chalk, toasted almond and mineral notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBen’s Recommendation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eAt Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for serious Champagne drinkers and Blanc de Blancs collectors seeking Grand Cru Chardonnay with concentration, freshness and fine mineral detail. The 2019 vintage is drinking beautifully now, while its acidity and structure give it further ageing potential and room to develop additional brioche, nutty and savoury complexity. Best enjoyed now or over the next 8–12 years. Serve chilled with oysters, seared scallops with brown butter, lobster, butter-poached marron, roast chicken with morels, or aged Comté.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eInfo\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"height: 119.563px;\" width=\"846\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: center; width: 319.521px;\"\u003eCOUNTRY\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: left; width: 353.639px;\"\u003eFrance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: center; width: 319.521px;\"\u003ePRODUCER\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 19.5938px; width: 353.639px;\"\u003eChampagne Agrapart\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: center; width: 319.521px;\"\u003eVARIETY\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 19.5938px; width: 353.639px;\"\u003eChardonnay\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 21.5938px; text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 21.5938px; text-align: center; width: 319.521px;\"\u003eSTYLE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 21.5938px; width: 353.639px;\"\u003eChampagne\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: center; width: 319.521px;\"\u003eVINTAGE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 19.5938px; width: 353.639px;\"\u003e2019\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: center; width: 319.521px;\"\u003eSIZE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 19.5938px; text-align: left; width: 353.639px;\"\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Agrapart \u0026 Fils","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67893543862587,"sku":"24466-750","price":966.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/6779\/7699\/files\/2019ChampagnePascalAgrapartGrandCruEXPBlancdeBlancs.jpg?v=1793733912","url":"https:\/\/winemore.com.au\/products\/2019-champagne-pascal-agrapart-grand-cru-exp-blanc-de-blancs","provider":"Wine More Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
