N/V Champ Viole, Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut, Pierre Gerbais (2011-2017 Base Vintages)

This extra brut blanc de blancs is so light on its feed. It's a masterclass from this young talent, Aurélien Gerbais, who is fast becoming a name to watch. His wines are showing all the promise one would hope to find in a close neighbour and friend of Cédric Bouchard, whose pioneering work changed the way we think about low pressure, gentle wines from this southerly region of Champagne. Add to that his Burgundian philosophies, and his pursuit of the purity engendered in the wines of mentor and friend Olivier Lamy in St Aubin, and you'll soon realise these wines are not to be missed. Champ Viole is a single vineyard which lays claim to being one of the very first planted by the Cistertian monks in the neighbouring Abbaye Notre-Dame de Mores. Disgorgement April 2021.
