Les Vignes de Montgueux'
Chardonnay, Champagne, France
One of the most special Grower Champagnes we know. Jacques Lassaigne is the most famous producer in the chalky little âislandâ of Montgueux, working biodynamically with almost zero additions. Montgueux faces fully south, an isolated outcropping of chalk that rises several feet above the surrounding plain, planted almost entirely to Chardonnay. Negociant producers use wine from Montgueux to add to blends to add richness, but Lassaigne is truly the broad and creamy yardstick by which all the others are measured. The classic Montgueux Blanc is a blend of Chardonnay coming from 7 different parcels on Lassaigneâs 4 hectare property. Aged in stainless steel with bright citrus flavours veering into low key tropical restraint. Spicy parfum, green leaf, ripe apricot, honeysuckle, Danish butter cookie. Ultra dry and incredible minerality YUM.
