About this wine

Roc Solare replaced the former Dans un Premier Temps and is being derived from the Coteaux du Sézannais. It's 90% Chardonnay, 10% Pinot Noir blend, Extra Brut, with reserve content and a more layered feel than a simple non-vintage cuvée. This places it squarely in Dhondt-Grellet’s modern, terroir-sensitive style: textured, mineral and highly controlled. It is excellent with shellfish, raw fish and elegant poultry dishes.

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.
