The most frequent question we’ve received has been “Why would anybody want to research Champagne and who would be interested in the results?” The immediate answer is quite simple! We can’t find the answers to our own questions even after cross-referencing all available public information and numerous trips to the region, so we consider ourselves both the principal user and the main provider.
Serata degustazione dedicata allo Champagne: Pinot Meunier in purezza. Sommelier Social Club, Nerviano, Milano - Sparkling-World, Milano
There are only 90 hectares of Pinot Blanc planted in Champagne. That is approximately 0.25% of the total vineyard surface.
Here are 6 of our favourite champagnes made exclusively with Pinot Blanc grapes that we use in our "Blanc de Pinot Blancs" tasting events
We have ordered them from left to right by the height of the wine label 😀.
In which order would you taste them and why?
Tell us which other 100% Pinot Blanc champagnes you like. Maybe we can add them to our collection.

Why does the 1964 vintage Champagne Leclerc Briant come with 2 corks? 🤔
Any ideas? We would love to hear your thoughts.
Special thanks to the Sommelier Social Club Nerviano (MI) for hosting our Rosé from Champagne tasting.
The evening's shades of pink colour chart was just amazing. The wines too!

"La Francia in Franciacorta" - a horizontal tasting of the Champagne Marie-Courtin collection at Osteria della Villetta, Palazzolo sull'Oglio (BS), with friends and producers from the Franciacorta sparkling wine district.
Résonance paired with "Coregone in Carpione and Croccante with white polenta" and Allégeance (rosé de macération) with Tripe were simply heavenly.
As always "Efflorescence" stands out as the most popular pure Pinot Noir
Special thanks to Maurizio and C° for organising the magnificent occasion. To be repeated...
Well it's not everyday that one gets to exchange views on the future of Champagne with M.me Maggie Henriquez, the President of Krug...
The 2017 Pinot Noir vin clair (base wine) 17 RCY 1-14B was just incredible. Does "RCY" mean that it comes from the largest Champagne village in Aube?
P.s. The Grande Cuvée magnum wasn't bad either😉
Thank you to Champagne Guru Denmark for the photos.
After a long and very wet winter, the last week of hot weather has accelerated the growth in the Champagne vineyards.
Patrick Jassionès, our good friend and photographer, has reported back with these great closeups...
Merci beaucoup Patrick et à très bientôt!
What is missing from our "Rosés from Champagne" tasting selection?

Any idea?
