Suenen, Champagne Blanc de Blancs Cramant Grand Cru “Les Robarts”, 2017

Suenen’s Champagne Blanc de Blancs Cramant Grand Cru “Les Robarts” 2017 is a profound and precise expression of a single vineyard in the esteemed grand cru village of Cramant in the Côte des Blancs. Crafted exclusively from Chardonnay, this vintage Champagne offers a vivid reflection of its chalk-rich terroir. The nose is delicate and refined, with aromas of lemon zest, green apple, and white peach, accented by hints of acacia, crushed chalk, and a subtle saline note. On the palate, it is taut and mineral-driven, revealing flavors of citrus curd, crisp pear, and a whisper of almond. The vibrant acidity and fine mousse culminate in a long, crystalline finish that lingers with remarkable purity and depth.

“Les Robarts” is a testament to Suenen’s dedication to organic farming and low-intervention winemaking. Grapes are hand-harvested from a small, meticulously tended plot, and fermentation occurs with indigenous yeasts in neutral vessels to maintain the wine’s freshness and terroir specificity. The 2017 vintage, marked by cool conditions, delivers a wine of tension and elegance, bottled with minimal dosage to highlight its precision and authenticity.

This Blanc de Blancs is an exquisite pairing for refined dishes such as poached lobster, scallop ceviche, or oysters on the half shell. Its razor-sharp focus and layered complexity also make it a standout choice for contemplative sipping or special celebrations. Suenen’s “Les Robarts” 2017 is a benchmark Champagne, showcasing the beauty and finesse of Cramant’s grand cru vineyards.
