J. L. Vergnon : Conversation Blanc de Blancs Grand cru Brut

The minerality and delicacy of a Blanc de Blancs champagne by J.L.Vergnon

The producer

A family-owned estate for five generations, J.L. Vergnon advocates a delicious alchemy between tradition, passion for the terroir and the authentic expression of a flagship grape variety of Champagne, Chardonnay.

The vineyard

The vineyards of the J.L. Vergnon Champagne House are composed of Grands Crus from the Côte des Blancs and Premiers Crus from the villages of Vertus and Villeneuve. The house watches over a vineyard of around twenty plots, managed in a sustainable manner and bearing the HVE 3 label.

The wine

J.L.Vergnon's Conversation Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Brut is made from parcels located in the villages of Mesnil sur Oger, Oger and Avize.

Vinification and ageing

This champagne is made from 20% reserve wine, aged for 3 months in oak barrels, and 80% of the current year's wine, vinified in stainless steel tanks. The wine is aged in the estate's cellars for 3 years before disgorgement. The dosage for this cuvée is 5 g/litre.

The blend

Conversation Blanc de Blancs Grand cru Brut by J.L.Vergnon is a 100% Chardonnay.

Wine Advocate-Parker :
Disgorged in April 2018, the latest release of Vergnon's NV Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Conversation exhibits a charming nose of coconut biscuits, green apples and ripe lemons. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, with racy acids, a youthfully frothy mousse and a pure, chalky finish. While it will improve with a year or two on cork, it's quite open-knit despite its precise style.
