2008 La Vigne Aux Gamins Blanc de Blancs, Thiénot

2008 La Vigne Aux Gamins Blanc de Blancs, Thiénot

This incredibly rare Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs from the outstanding 2008 vintage is a beautiful thing. It comes from a single parcel of 60 year old vines in Avize, whose chalky soils are famous for the superb Chardonnays that grow here. A low dosage (only 4g/l) combined with extended ageing on lees (11 years sur lattes) has imbued the wine with a complexity and depth that’s hard to match. Only 4,000 bottles were made.
