Gault&Millau's review

2023 92/100

Delightful fine bubbles rise from the gold color with green highlights. This blanc de blancs, from the 2017 harvest, offers a complex nose, both vegetal and floral with notes of wisteria, white fruit and a honeyed touch of acacia. Beautiful attack on the palate. The bubbles carry a pleasantly acidic note. A long finish that reveals its full splendor with aeration. Enjoy with honeyed Chavignol crottin "aumônières" and a walnut-oil salad.

Eric Isselée

Born into a family of winegrowers, Éric Isselée created his brand in 1984 on the basis of historic plots in Cramant, a village classified as a Grand Cru. Very attached to this specific chalk of the Côte des Blancs, which produces pure, chiselled champagnes, the winemaker cultivates Chardonnay and offers blanc de blancs champagnes, with the exception of his blended rosé. Vinification is carried out on a parcel-by-parcel basis, enabling the domaine to offer single-vineyard cuvées. With a strong focus on wine tourism, the estate offers three different gîtes and a chambre d'hôtes, all located in the village of Cramant, on the outskirts of the family home. Ideal for discovering the estate's wines, the Côte des Blancs and the region as a whole.
