Lobenberg: Adrien Dhondts Version der vielleicht stahligsten und puristischsten Grand Cru-Gemeinde der Côte des Blancs. Ein Laserschwert von einem Champagner, zitrischfrisch, nussig, dramatisch, kalkig, druckvoll, mitreißend. Ein grandioser, kraftvoll-mineralischer Blanc de Blancs! 96/100

Jeb Dunnuck über: Champagne Cramant Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut (Basis 2019)

-- Jeb Dunnuck: Pouring a bright yellow color, the NV Champagne Blanc de Blancs Cramant Extra Brut offers notes of lemon curd, fresh apples, honey, citrus blossoms, and golden fruit. It boasts pristine beauty, with a classic Blanc de Blancs appeal yet a beautiful, modern texture. The mousse is refined with creamy bubbles, and the wine has a salty and focused feel. It’s fresh and elegant throughout. Drink 2025-2050. This cuvée comes from two plots in Cramant with opposite profiles. La Garrennes is not the stereotype of Cramant, with more clay and some sand in the soil, creating rich, vigorous conditions that yield a lot of energy. The second plot has chalky soils, low yields, and very small, concentrated berries. One plot brings energy and richness; the other brings vertical structure and concentration.

Parker über: Champagne Cramant Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut (Basis 2019)

-- Parker: Aromas of crisp yellow orchard fruit and mirabelle plum mingle with notions of freshly baked bread, almond paste and white flowers in an inviting bouquet that introduces Dhondt's NV Extra-Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Cramant (2019), a full-bodied, ample and pillowy Champagne that unites texture, generous racy acids and a chalky structure. Seamless and complete, it concludes with a long, mineral finish. 95/100

Galloni über: Champagne Cramant Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut (Basis 2019)

-- Galloni: The NV Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Cramant Grand Cru is based on the 2019 vintage, harvested from 50-year-old vines, with a 30% addition of a perpetual reserve dating back to 1986. This is from two plots: La Garennes on richer soils that used to be market gardens, and Les Longes Verges with less topsoil, infected by fanleaf virus which results in small, concentrated grapes. The nose has fresh apple notes and the merest touch of crumbled chicken stock cube. The palate is beautifully taut, notwithstanding the ripeness Dhondt aims for, and a cut-through saltiness with a pure, bright lemon freshness. Slight phenolics on the finish add structure. Dosage is 1gr/L. Disgorged: October, 2022.

Mein Winzer

Dhondt – Grellet

Die familiengeführte Domaine Dhondt-Grellet ist ein Sinnbild für die Erfolgsstory der Winzerchampagne. Bereits 1986 stoppten Eric Dhondt und Edith Grellet den Verkauf von Trauben an Négociants, um ihre eigene Vision der Champagne in die Flasche zu füllen.
