Suenen, a grower-producer in the Côte des Blancs, crafts C+C from the Grand Cru villages of Cramant and Chouilly. Both sites feature chalk-rich soils that yield Chardonnay of precision and minerality.

Based on the 2021 harvest with reserve wines, it’s fermented partly in oak and aged on lees for complexity. A focused, terroir-driven Champagne from two of the region’s top crus.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 94

"The NV Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs C + C Grand Cru gets its name from Chouilly and Cramant, the villages where the Chardonnay was picked. The nose presents yellow apple peel with a sheen of waxiness and a sense of dried ears of wheat and a touch of ocean air. Saltiness is immediate on the slender palate, where concentration gives a sense of salted apple flesh, wet oyster shell and deep chalk. Slender, earthy, intense and deeply oceanic. Fruit subsides to let soil speak. There's a fine but slightly dissipating mousse." -Antonio Galloni

Robert Parker

RP 94

"With an incisive personality shaped by the cool season, the NV Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru C + C, as always, derives from the villages of Cramant and Chouilly. Based on the 2021 vintage, complemented by 50% of a perpetual blend, and disgorged in July 2024 with a dosage of four grams per liter, half of this wine is vinified in tank and the rest in barrels (mostly from François Frères and Damy). Soaring from the glass with notes of citrus fruit, pine nuts and green apple, with lots of structuring chalky extract and racy acids, it concludes with a long, searingly saline finish. This cuvée has inspired Aurélien Suenen to reconsider his approach with vintage-dated lieux-dits, possibly building them with a reserve wine component in future, to even out vintage variations." -Kristaps Karklins

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!
