C+C stands for Cramant plus Chouilly, and it is the clearest way into Aurélien Suenen's style: roughly 70 percent from Cramant's east-facing slopes and 30 percent from south-facing parcels in Chouilly, nine plots in all, entirely Chardonnay. Suenen took over the family domaine in 2009 at 23, converted the vineyards to organics — certification came in 2019 — and rebuilt the cellar around indigenous yeasts, the old enamel tanks he inherited from his grandfather, seasoned oak and concrete. The blend spends about nine months in tank and cask before bottling, then a long second ageing on the lees, and is finished Extra Brut. This release is built on the 2022 base.

"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

"Closer in style to the 2018 rendition than to the 2021, the new Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru C + C, as ever, draws from the communes of Cramant and Chouilly. Based on the 2022 vintage and complemented by 50% perpetual reserve, it was disgorged in July 2025 with a dosage of four grams per liter, with roughly half of the wine vinified in tank and the remainder in wood. The wine opens with notes of orange oil, pear, dried flowers and freshly baked bread, leading into a medium- to full-bodied, rich and textural palate, underpinned by racy acidity and dry extract, and concluding in a long, sapid finish. Readers will recall that it was this cuvée that prompted Aurélien Suenen to reconsider his approach to the lieux-dits, potentially incorporating a reserve-wine component to temper vintage character and allow site to take center stage." —Kristaps Karklins

More about Suenen

Aurélien Suenen owns 1.5 hectares in the Côte des Blancs and doesn't plan to expand—instead, he dives deeper. Organic since 2019, chalk-obsessed, making mineral-driven Blanc de Blancs that taste like pure terroir in a glass.

Oysters, gougères, fried chicken, sushi, potato chips with crème fraîche and trout roe, aged Gruyère.

Orange peel, lemon zest, white flowers and a hint of toasted grain. Dry and creamy in texture but tight-grained, with brisk acidity and a salty, chalky 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!
