Champagne Etienne Calsac Les Rocheforts Blanc de Blancs 1er Cru Extra Brut NV

Étienne Calsac is one of Champagne's rising stars. In 2010 at the age of 26, he became responsible for his family's domaine: 2.8 hectares of vineyards spread between Avize, Grauves and Bisseuil.

Each parcel is vinified separately, with a small percentage of the Rose de Craie and Infiniment Blanc aged in old barrels. All bottles are aged on the lees for 36 months, and an additional 3 months is given after disgorgement before the wines are released.Calsac has an eye for experimentation, so expect to see new releases over the next few years, including Pinot Noir from family vineyards in the Aube and an extremely limited bottling from the monopole Clos des Maladries in Avize, planted by Etienne's grandfather. His commitment to site specific Champagnes continues to intrigue.
