Les 7 Crus, a blend of 90% Chardonnay and 10% Pinot noir, comes from 70% Grand Cru and 30% Premier Cru vineyards from the seven villages around Avize. Blended from the 2018 and 2017 vintages and given over two years 'sur lattes', the dosage of 5g/l is well-judged, helping to emphasize its driving fruitiness and minerality. It is a perfect example of how a good NV champagne balances character and authenticity with sheer, delicious drinkability. Disgorged in February 2021
