Elise Dechannes Chardonnay 'Single Parcel' '17

- 100% Chardonnay single parcel called 'Val Preuse' in Les Riceys

- High acidity, good minerality and excellent length.

- Perfect with oysters and shellfish.

Very pale yellow in colour, a classic Chardonnay. The nose is dominated by acacia, jasmine and lemon blossom making for an extraordinarily light champagne. On the palate, find creamy notes of white fruit, citrus and orange. This vintage has high acidity and a good minerality with a great length and finish.

Born into a family of Champagne winegrowers in the heart of Ricey’s renowned vineyards, Elise Dechannes has been nurturing her lifelong passion since 2008 by crafting a range of champagnes in her image – fine, elegant and subtle.

A graduate of Reims Business School, she left a very accomplished career in the financial sector to pursue a more relaxed lifestyle. She returned to her family farm and took over the winemaking. She is an earnest and dedicated spirit committed to healthy farming, working towards all organic and biodynamic practices. She has even chosen to plow her vineyards traditionally with a horse rather than use heavy machinery like tractors.

Completely biodynamic, 100% Chardonnay with zero dosage and only 1,235 bottles produced.

We suggest serving with a seafood feast, pair with oysters and shellfish.
