Merchant's description

Étienne Calsac`s L`Échappée Belle is a blanc de blancs Champagne produced from 100% Chardonnay. The base wines are fermented spontaneously and see a portion of their élevage in oak barrels. This Champagne includes a significant proportion of reserve wines, often kept in a perpetual reserve, adding depth and complexity. It is known for its pure, saline and energetic profile, exhibiting notes of citrus zest, green apple, white flowers and chalky minerality.
