Current Vintage: 2017
Grape: 100% Chardonnay
The 2017 vintage of Clos Sainte Sophie reflects Lassaigne's commitment to producing terroir-driven wines that highlight the unique characteristics of the region.
The Clos Sainte Sophie site is particularly notable because it is a walled vineyard, or "clos," which allows for increased control over the growing environment. This vineyard is known for its clay-limestone soils, which contribute to the complexity and minerality of the wines produced there.
In 2017, the growing season presented a mix of challenges and favorable conditions. The weather patterns throughout the year influenced grape ripening and development, ultimately impacting the quality and style of the vintage. Lassaigne is known for his meticulous vineyard management and his aim to express the terroir, which would be particularly important given the varying conditions of the year.
The resulting wine from this vintage typically exhibits elegance, depth, and a balance of fruit and acidity, showcasing the pure expressions of the grapes grown in this specific vineyard. Lassaigne often employs traditional Champagne-making techniques, including fermentation in oak barrels and minimal intervention in both the vineyard and the cellar, allowing the wine's true character to shine through.
