"The elegance of Chenin in a delicate bubble!
A Brut Tradition born of the passion and excellence of the Blot family. This fresh, vibrant cuvée releases delicate aromas of fruit and white flowers. On the palate, there's a pronounced mineral touch and a lovely airy finish. A sure value, full of subtlety.

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Wine rated (guide 2025) 92/100
Domaine rated (guide 2025) 5*Stars (Outstanding producers, those who represent the absolute pinnacle of quality in France and the world)
About the wine:
This is a gallant wine, to be drunk in good company, elegant and stylish.
About the domain :
After the death of his father, a charismatic figure in world winegrowing, Jean-Philippe Blot took up the reins alone, aided by a close-knit technical and cultural team. This is the best way to ensure the continuity of this flagship estate in the French wine world, which shines with wines that are always well-balanced, displaying great aromatic intensity and depth.
