This way-under-the-radar Champagne discovery is yet another over-achiever from the heart of the Côte des Blancs. "L'Extravertie" is a great introduction to the house and is a stunning value to boot. It is made with grapes from Grand Cru terroirs (Le Mesnil-surOger, Chouilly, Gramant,Oger and Oiry) blended with a bit of Premier Cru grapes from Cuis and Villeneuve. This Champagne possesses a beguiling combination freshness, lightness and finesse. It is just perfect for any occasion; it will delight you during any special moment.
-Aromas of buttered brioche with chalky notes, grapefruit and green apple. Fresh palate with a light effervesces. Fruity and juicy with a lemon-y acidity and a chalky, elegant, and creamy minerality. Soft, balanced finish.

The team of Antoine and Celement Bouret take meticulous care in the treatment of their vines in order to bring out all the nuances and subtleties of their 44 vineyard plots. The family has reduced synthetic inputs to a minimum (including the total elimination of herbicides and insecticides), ploughing and grassing the soil and giving preference to organic fertilizers.

WINERY NOTES: "Lively and expressive, it reflects our vineyard and all the finesse of chardonnay. A spirited champagne par excellence, combing freshness and elegance. It invites you to a moment of pleasure and discovery through the Côtes des Blancs."

JAMES SUCKLING 90 POINTS - "Toasted bread aroma, together with light lemon pulp and lemon bush, acacia honey and bright linden-tree flowers. Brut style with medium body and crisp acidity. Tight palate with an almost biting finish and fine, yet not too long mousse."
