The rainy Winter and the frozen Spring did not bode well for the 2012 Vintage. The fortunate return of heat and sunshine in August helped the bunches to ripen in good health. In the end, the quality of the 2012 harvest was exceptional with strong ageing potential, particularly for our Chardonnays. This Vintage Blanc de Blancs is an exclusive blend of our 3 Grand Crus: Avize, Cramant and Oger.
