Crafted by the historic cooperative house Maison Chassenay d'Arce, located in the Côte des Bar region of Champagne, the Cuvée Pinot Blanc Extra Brut Millésime 2014 highlights an extraordinarily rare expression of the region’s heritage. Made entirely from 100% Pinot Blanc—a traditional yet seldom-bottled grape variety in Champagne—this vintage cuvée undergoes extended aging to reveal remarkable depth. Benefiting from the unique Kimmeridgian clay-limestone soils of the Arce Valley, the wine exhibits a crisp, mineral-driven profile with minimal dosage. Crisp orchard fruit notes, refined texture, and precise acidity characterize this exceptional Blanc de Blancs, offering fine wine enthusiasts a sophisticated, distinctive tasting experience.
Tasting notes
The nose presents elegant aromas of ripe yellow peach, juicy pear, and white blossoms, complemented by subtle toasted brioche and subtle vanilla undertones. On the palate, a delicate perlage and vibrant acidity frame a rich core of stone fruit and crisp orchard notes, underpinned by a distinct mineral tension. The finish is remarkably long and refined, lingering with subtle smoky nuances and a clean, refreshing salinity.
