Availability: in stock

Complex and rich, this cuvée maintains freshness and tension, to the delight of champagne lovers who appreciate balance.

Blanc de blancs Champagne is made of 100% Chardonnay from the Courmas and Saint-Lumier terroirs in Champagne.

This champagne by xavier Alexandre develops all the complexity that one can expect from a vintage. The nose opens with woody and buttery aromas before giving way to notes of yellow fruits and vanilla. The mouth is tense despite the long years of aging and develops all the aromatic richness announced by the nose.

This Blanc de blancs champagne will go perfectly with delicate appetizers and iodized dishes (fish, scallops).

Champagne Xavier Alexandre

The Xavier Alexandre House was founded in 1933 and has since been handed down from father to son. It is located in Courmas, a beautiful village in the heart of the vineyards west of the Reims Mountain.
Xavier Alexandre, who took over the family business from his father Yves, is a harvester-handler, i.e. he grows the vines on the family estate, makes the wines and markets them himself.
