Creamy and flavorful, yet it remains precise and vertical, with an array of lemons, green apples, pie crust, almonds, hazelnuts and chalk. Medium-bodied with creamy, fine bubbles. Lots of energy, with zesty citrus notes...

The NV Agrapart & Fils Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Terroirs Champagne, produced by Agrapart - Fils, is a white Champagne Blend with an alcohol content of 12%. This non-vintage Champagne is based predominantly on the 2019 vintage, supplemented with reserve wines from 2018, and utilizes 100% Grand Cru Chardonnay grapes sourced from Avize, Oger, Cramant, and Oiry.

Professional reviewers have given high accolades to this wine, consistently rating it in the mid-90s. Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate awarded it a score of 93, noting its "citrus oil, white flowers, freshly baked bread and hazelnuts" aroma profile. William Kelley from the publication describes the palate as "medium to full-bodied, creamy and satiny," emphasizing its "bright, lively and chalky" nature.

Vinous also rated the wine at 93 points, with Antonio Galloni praising its balance and complexity. He highlights the presence of "chalk, white pepper, sage, and mint," which meld seamlessly with "lemon peel and crushed rocks." This wine, according to Galloni, benefits from natural fermentation and complete malolactic fermentation, with a dosage of 5 grams per liter.

James Suckling provided an excellent review with a score of 95 points, describing the wine as "creamy and flavorful, yet it remains precise and vertical."

Suckling appreciates its layered complexity and suggests it can be enjoyed now or held for future enjoyment.

Decanter, which awarded it 94 points, appreciates the wine's origins from grand cru plots with older vines. The review mentions "zesty lemon aroma" and a palate of "fresh apple and tangerine flavors with creamy wood touches." The publication highlights the wine's balance and its "dry, steely, mineral, moreish character."

The Wine Independent gave it 95+ points, with Sarah Mayo describing it as "complex and redolent of Meyer lemon curd, crushed stone, butter pastry, almond nougat, and honeysuckle." She emphasizes its "electrified, silky acid energy" and "beautifully layered, refreshing and balanced" nature, concluding that the finish is remarkably long-lasting.

This NV Agrapart & Fils Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Terroirs is a highly regarded Champagne that showcases the best of its grand cru origins, offering a complex, balanced, and refreshing experience.
