NV Champagne Alexandre Bonnet Blanc de Noirs

Place: Cote des Bar - Champagne, France Variety: Pinot Noir Farming: Organic Alexandre Bonnet is based in the village of Les Riceys in the Côte des Bar, a southerly pocket of Champagne known for its Kimmeridgian soils and Pinot Noir dominance. Working with estate-grown fruit, the focus here is on expressing site through a more vinous, terroir-driven lens of Champagne. Their Blanc de Noirs is 100% Pinot Noir and leans into that regional identity. Red apple, baked pear and citrus peel lead, with hints of spice, brioche and a subtle chalky edge. The palate is generous but structured, with fine mousse, a gently creamy texture and a savoury, mineral finish. A fuller, more gastronomic style—Champagne with both depth and character.
