Champagne Chartogne-Taillet Hors Série Grand Cru Millésime 2020
The Champagne Hors Série Millésime 2020 by Chartogne-Taillet is a limited edition, an exclusive and refined interpretation of the Blanc de Blancs cuvée by vigneron Alexandre. Made from 100% Chardonnay, it originates from a careful selection of grapes, partly from the renowned Lieu-Dit “Chemin de Châlons”, located near the village of Avize, and from vines in the Grand Cru of Oger, two exceptional terroirs of the Côte des Blancs.
The 2020 harvest is expressed through meticulous vinification in fût de chêne (oak barrels), followed by a long aging period of approximately 42 months on its lees. The low final dosage of only 1 g/l places it in the Extra Brut category, preserving the purest expression of the fruit and the distinctive minerality of the terroir.
On tasting, Hors Série Millésime 2020 stands out for its full-bodied and concentrated profile, an elegant structure that combines creaminess and mineral tension, achieving a perfect balance between power and finesse. The distinctive character of Avize and Oger translates into a deep and enveloping sip, enriched by an extraordinary persistence and aromatic complexity.
An exclusive label, designed for lovers of Blanc de Blancs Champagne with great territorial expression, capable of evolving magnificently over time.
