Strong and soft spoken, Pascal Agrapart has been working like this since 1984, well before today’s grower Champagne boom. Peter Liem compares his reputation for outstanding Côtes des Blancs wines to that of Anselme Selosse. Farming is intended to sync with natural cycles, and only indigenous yeast is used, capitalizing again on each plot’s unique terroir.

The house is based in Avize, in the Côtes des Blancs, and unsurprisingly focuses on Chardonnay. Agrapart creates terroir-driven and focused wines of great minerality and complexity, from plots chosen specifically for each cuvée. The farming is intuitive and meticulous; the work in the cellar is equally painstaking.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 92
"The 2017 Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Vénus Grand Cru is pretty, floral and nicely lifted, with a gorgeous aromatic presence to match its mid-weight feel. Sourced from La Fosse, a 64-year-old parcel that has seen no mechanical harvesting since its inception (the site was originally tilled by a horse named Vénus), the 2017 is attractive but also a touch ethereal. Zero dosage."

Robert Parker

RP 95
"The 2017 Extra-Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Vénus is more ethereal than the richer Avizoise, offering up aromas of white flowers, sweet stone fruits and fresh hazelnuts, followed by a medium to full-bodied, layered and pillowy palate with a mineral, fine-boned profile and a long, saline finish. It's proof that, despite the vintage's poor reputation, some seriously compelling wines were made in 2017, especially from Chardonnay." -Robert Parker
