The Blanc de Blancs Ailleurs Brut Nature 2020 from Olivier Horiot reveals a clay-limestone terroir at Fontette. 100% Chardonnay grown biodynamically, without sulfites, aged in barrels. Mineral and taut, it captivates with its silky bubble and freshness. Ideal with oysters, aging potential> 10 years.
Nestled in the heart of Les Riceys, this family estate embodies the rare alliance between Champagne tradition and biodynamic viticulture, guided by a quest for purity and terroir expression.
- Terroir: Clay-limestone soils of southern Champagne, where the grape varieties draw a distinctive minerality and a natural tension.
- Winemaking: Barrel aging without additives or sulfites, for living, precise wines faithful to their origin.
Tasting notes for Olivier Horiot Blanc de Blancs Ailleurs Brut Nature 2020
To the eye: A pale golden robe with green highlights, of crystalline clarity, revealing a silky texture and a fine, persistent effervescence.
On the nose: Aromas of candied citrus (lime, grapefruit), white flowers (hawthorn), followed by notes of toasted brioche and a saline touch evoking the chalks of the Champagne hillsides.
On the palate: A lively and taut attack, carried by a precise acidity and a chalky minerality, before a long, saline finish where freshness and depth intertwine.
Serve between 10 and 12°C in a narrow Champagne flûte to concentrate the aromas.
