Pierre Moncuit’s Champagne “Delos” Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru NV is a refined and terroir-driven expression crafted exclusively from Chardonnay grown in the Grand Cru vineyards of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger in the Côte des Blancs. Known for its chalk-rich soils, Le Mesnil imparts a distinct minerality and elegance to this Blanc de Blancs. The Extra Brut dosage highlights the wine’s natural acidity and pure fruit expression, allowing the essence of the terroir to take center stage.

On the nose, “Delos” offers aromas of lemon zest, green apple, and white flowers, with delicate hints of chalk, almond, and a touch of brioche from its extended lees aging. The palate is vibrant and precise, revealing flavors of citrus, crisp pear, and a pronounced minerality that speaks to the wine’s Grand Cru origins. The fine, creamy mousse enhances the wine’s texture, while the Extra Brut finish is crisp and clean, leaving a refreshing impression of salinity and subtle complexity.

This Champagne is ideal for pairing with raw oysters, lobster, or creamy cheeses, where its brightness and mineral depth can complement rich and refined flavors. With youthful energy and clarity, Pierre Moncuit’s “Delos” Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs is a wonderful choice for those who appreciate a structured, terroir-focused Champagne with the finesse and aging potential typical of Grand Cru Chardonnay.
