Born on Avize’s chalky slopes, De Sousa Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Cuvée des Caudalies draws its elegance from a Grand Cru terroir. Made from biodynamically grown, old-vine Chardonnay and aged in barrels, this champagne reveals citrus and brioche aromas with saline minerality. Its fine bubbles and tension give it aging potential of 8–20 years; it pairs beautifully with seafood.
A family-run house rooted in Avize, where time shapes champagnes of rare precision—the legacy of a terroir and a demanding winemaking philosophy.
- Terroir : Côte des Blancs, Grand Cru d’Avize—chalky soils, limestone subsoil and a cool, windy climate that refines the Chardonnay’s minerality.
- Winemaking : Aging in oak barrels, a perpetual reserve maintained since 1995, and late harvesting for optimal grape ripeness.
Tasting notes for De Sousa Grand cru Blanc de blancs Cuvée des Caudalies
- Appearance : Pale gold color with green highlights and fine, persistent bubbles, like a veil of silk across the glass.
- Nose : Aromas of lime and pink grapefruit, followed by toasted brioche, acacia blossom and a saline touch reminiscent of sea spray.
- Palate : A lively, precise opening, driven by taut acidity and chalky minerality; the silky texture leads to a long, saline finish with candied citrus and toasted almond.
Serve at 10–12 °C in a narrow champagne flute to preserve the freshness and complexity of its aromas.
