About this wine

This 2021 release is a Blanc de Noirs from the Les Côtes au Vent parcel in Cuis, with 2025 disgorgement. It is part of Dhondt-Grellet’s terroir-driven range, where individual sites are isolated and vinified with a view to site expression rather than house-style uniformity. It is best suited to drinkers who like mineral, tightly wound grower Champagne.

Tasting Note

Critics frame it as a high-precision, parcel-specific Champagne with strong tension and length.

In the glass

Pale lemon-gold with delicate mousse. This is a style inference consistent with the cuvée.

In the nose

Citrus peel, chalk and restrained brioche notes, with more tension than overt fruitiness. This is an inference from the wine’s positioning and producer style.

On the palate

Taut and concentrated, with mineral grip, incisive acidity and a long dry finish.

Dhondt-Grellet

Dhondt-Grellet is a highly regarded grower estate producing incisive, terroir-driven Champagnes from old-vine Chardonnay and Pinot. Organic farming, low dosage and élevage in oak and steel lend the wines depth and a thrilling, saline edge. Cuvées like Les Nogers and Les Terres Fines have become favourites among Champagne aficionados.
