Les Chemins d'Avize Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs 2015 Champagne Larmandier-Bernier
チョークに深く根を張る、アヴィズの古樹。
ビオディナミ・シャンパーニュの先駆者ラルマンディエ夫妻が、2009年に小型プレス機を導入して実現した単一畑キュヴェです。アヴィズ村中心部の2区画に、1950〜60年代初頭に植えられた古樹が痩せたチョーク土壌へ深く根を張ります。レモンの果皮や白い花、蜂の巣、チョークダストの香り。ふっくらとした口当たりに木樽由来のヴィノシテが重なり、生き生きとした酸が全体を引き締めます。牡蠣や帆立、熟成コンテとともに。
Tasting note
Lemon peel and white flowers, with subtle hints of honey and chalk. Aromas of citrus oil, verbena, freshly baked pastry, vanilla pod, and fresh herbs combine to create a medium to full-bodied, plump, and chalky texture. It boasts concentrated vinosity, while vibrant acidity tightens the overall structure. A linear and focused wine that is never thin, with gentle vinosity, the driving force of minerals, and a taut energy that slowly unfolds in the glass. This is a wine that captures the true essence of Avize, with the potential for long-term aging.

This single-vineyard cuvée is crafted by Pierre and Sophie Larmandier, pioneers of biodynamic Champagne. The couple had long believed that the terroir of Avize deserved its own cuvée. In 2009, they introduced a small press, enabling them to vinify two plots in the heart of Avize, "Chemin de Prieux" and "Chemin de Flavigny," separately. Old vines, planted in the 1950s and early 1960s, root deeply into the lean, pure chalky soil. The wine offers aromas of lemon zest, white flowers, honeycomb, and chalk dust, with a focused and linear palate. The vinous quality from the oak barrels and the chalky minerality slowly unfold in the glass with a tense energy, revealing the true essence of Avize.
