Agrapart Extra Brut Mineral
| Vintage: | 2015 |

| Description: | Vinous Wine Media 94 Points -"The 2015 Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Minral Grand Cru is bracing, taut and wiry. Crushed rocks, mint, white pepper and lemon peel drive this blend. The Minral is especially fine in 2015. There is a bit of youthful austerity, but nothing a few years in bottle can't take care of. The Minral is one of the finer 2015s I have come across so far. Dosage is 3 grams per liter. Disgorged: May, 2021.". Champagne Agrapart was founded in 1894 by Arthur Agrapart in the village of Avize in the Cte de Blancs region of Champagne. Since the beginning, Agrapart has estate-bottled all of their wines under their own label. Today, fourth-generation vigneron Pascal Agrapart runs this venerable estate, one of the most historic and important in the Cte de Blancs. Pascal's deep knowledge of both farming and winemaking have helped him become a leading figure in Champagne's grower-producer revolution. Pascal's son, Amboise, helps him manage nine and a half hectares of predominantly Chardonnay vineyards the vast majority of which are Grand Cru in the heart of the Cte de Blancs, primarily in the villages of Avize, Oger, Cramant and Oiry. Vine age is among the oldest in the Cte de Blancs, with many of the Agraparts vineyards in excess of seventy years of age, and the average overall age of the vines is a healthy forty years old. The estate has also farmed organically for years. |
