The NV Extra Brut Complantée Grand Cru soars out of the glass with striking aromatics. Bright, sculpted and perfumed, the Complantée is wonderfully expressive. This blend of co-planted Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Pinot Blanc, Arbane, Petit Meslier and Chardonnay is so expressive. It is especially aromatic and ethereal in this release. The Complantée was fermented with native yeasts in used 600-liter tonneaux. Doasage is 5 grams per liter. Disgorged: February, 2023. -- Antonio Galloni

A blend of the sunny 2020 and 2019 vintages, the latest rendition of Agrapart's NV Extra Brut Grand Cru Complantée is especially successful. Offering up aromas of white flowers, orange oil, confit citrus and buttery pastry, this field blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Pinot Blanc, Arbane and Petit Meslier planted in 2003 can sometimes be almost assertively incisive, but this tirage is medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, with racy but fully integrated acids and a suave, fine-boned profile. - William Kelley

Based on the 2019 and 2020 vintages, with 20% reserve wine aged in barrel, the Agrapart Complantée Extra Brut Grand Cru is a six cépage blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Arbonne, Petit Meslier and Pinot Blanc 100% fermented in demi-muid oak barrels. Aged 24-36 months on lies, disgorged 60 days before release with a five gram per liter dosage. Spectacularly fresh and vibrant from the start with ripe citrus, crisp yellow apple, pomegranate seeds, bread dough and chalk aromas spilling into a medium-bodied, energetic palate with a silky textured mousse, abundant fruit and vibrant, stimulating acidity. Composed and refreshing throughout, it finished with great length. - Sarah Mayo
