Current Vintage: 2021
Grapes: 100% Chardonnay
From the grand cru village of Mesnil-sur-Oger in the Côte des Blancs comes this shining expression of Chardonnay by Adrien Dhondt. Known for precision, minerality and a deep sense of place, Dhondt crafts “Les Plantes d’Oger” to showcase the steely chalk soils alongside elegant fruit from his mature vines.
This cuvée is vinified using ambient yeasts, raised on lees, and handled with care to preserve freshness and terroir. Expect little if any heavy manipulation; no heavy filtration, allowing texture and purity to show through.
The 2021 comes from a small parcel in Oger, with the cooler growing season bringing an extra dimension of freshness to the wine. Dhondt's thoughtful use of oak gives the Chardonnay room to develop texture and complexity, while the Extra Brut approach keeps everything precise and wonderfully dry. It's a wine that manages to feel both generous and tightly composed, with plenty still to reveal as it matures.
Lemon, crisp pear and white peach open into delicate flowers, toasted almond and a little warm brioche. There's a lovely roundness through the middle, but also a firm, chalky backbone that keeps the wine lively and carries it into a long, mineral finish. A beautifully expressive Blanc de Blancs that deserves a proper glass and a little time to open up. Try it with scallops, lobster, roast chicken or a rich piece of grilled fish.
