Jean Diot Premier Magie Blanche Blanc de Blancs Champagne

$65.00

The estate was founded in 1960 by Jean Diot in the Marne appellation of Champagne. Today, Jean's children run the estate focused on growing Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier. Jean-Philippe is very careful about separate vinification of each cru prior to the assemblage.

The Magie Blanche champagne ages in the cellar for a minimum of 36 months after bottling, which allows it to acquire greater maturity. Disgorging occurs as late as possible to keep the freshness. The liqueur d’expedition is aged in oak for 3 to 5 months. As little dosage as possible (8.5g/l) and sulfite additions far below the usual champagne standards.

Pale yellow with silvery reflections. Expressive and intense nose of yeasts, butter biscuits, fine spices, fresh grass. Very frank and direct on the palate with a nice refreshing acidity and a firm, solid structure. Long finish sustained by a persistent tasty note. 100% Chardonnay
