The Agrapart & Fils Champagne Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut ‘Minéral’ 2017 is a pristine expression of 100% Chardonnay from the Grand Cru villages of Avize and Cramant in the Côte des Blancs. Crafted by Pascal Agrapart, a master of biodynamic viticulture and terroir-driven winemaking, this cuvée highlights the chalky soils of these renowned vineyards. The ‘Minéral’ designation underscores its precise and focused style, achieved through meticulous vineyard practices and natural fermentation. Aged in oak barrels and bottled with minimal dosage, this Extra Brut Champagne emphasizes vibrancy and purity.

On the nose, this Champagne opens with captivating aromas of lemon confit, marzipan, and subtle spice, complemented by hints of graphite and citrus zest. The palate is refined and energetic, offering a harmonious interplay of bright citrus flavors, chalky minerality, and a lingering, clean finish. Its elegant structure and depth make it a standout Blanc de Blancs.

This Champagne pairs beautifully with oysters, seared scallops, or roasted poultry, and its crisp minerality also complements mild cheeses like Brie and Comté. While approachable now for its freshness and precision, the Agrapart & Fils ‘Minéral’ 2017 will reward careful cellaring over the next 2–3 years, developing even greater nuance and complexity. It is a stunning representation of Agrapart’s artistry and the exceptional terroir of the Côte des Blancs.

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.

"The 2017 Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Minéral Grand Cru is gorgeous. It offers a beguiling mix of lemon confit, marzipan, spice and graphite, melding together notable textural richness and vibrancy. This is an especially open-knit edition of the Minéral. That's not a bad thing at all. There's an exotic quality to the 2017 that is perhaps not characteristic but makes this quite enjoyable." -Vinous

"The 2017 Extra-Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Minéral has turned out nicely, exhibiting notes of orange zest, Meyer lemon, white flowers and hazelnuts, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and seamless palate that's layered, vinous and elegantly mineral, exhibiting a charming profile that will make this vintage approachable young."
