The pinnacle of Pierre Peters and one of Champagne's great single-vineyard Blanc de Blancs — made only in the finest years, from a single harvest, off one hallowed patch of Grand Cru chalk. "Les Chetillons" is a lieu-dit within Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, planted to three old-vine parcels averaging around 50 years, the oldest dating to 1936. Where the estate's non-vintage cuvees blend across years, this is pure vintage terroir: 2018 fruit, vinified parcel by parcel, then aged some two years on the lees with a low dosage that leaves it taut and precise. Peters has bottled Chetillons since 1971, and it remains a benchmark for what old-vine Mesnil Chardonnay can achieve. Powerful yet chiseled, and built to age for years.

"The 2018 Brut Cuvée Spéciale Les Chétillons is a super-classic Peters Champagne. Bright and beautifully sculpted in the glass, the 2018 sizzles with tension. Lemon peel, chalk, mint, dried flowers, sage and oyster shell are some of the many notes that emerge over time. I especially admire the energy here. An archetype for Mesnil." —Antonio Galloni

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Caviar, raw oysters, turbot or halibut in beurre blanc, or a fine aged Comte.

Tasting Profile

Dry, powerful, and precise, with citrus rind, white flowers, brioche, and a saline chalk core. Fine mousse, cutting acidity, and a long, mineral finish.

Champagne

Champagne boasts some of the world’s greatest luxury brands with Krug, Cristal and, of course, Dom Perignon. But it’s also home to hundreds of small dynamic producers—farmers who grow their own grapes (often organically) and make (often with natural methods) tiny amounts of pure and absolutely delicious wine that reflect the individual personalities of their villages and terroirs. Toast with these wines, for sure. But also treat them like the great wines they are: taste, drink, explore!
