Description Customers often ask, “What’s Blanc de Blancs Champagne and what makes it special?” The Champagne region grows three grapes, two red – Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier – and one white – Chardonnay. Blanc de Blancs, exclusively crafted from Chardonnay, as aptly noted by Hugh Johnson, embodies “great grace and less weight than traditional Champagne”. Laithwaite’s is a tip-top example which has been expertly created for us by a renowned cellar in Vertus, one of Champagne’s finest villages. This specific cuvée is sourced entirely from Premier Cru Vineyards and undergoes a 30-month maturation, double the required minimum, resulting in a delightful toasty biscuit character. Perfect for special occasions, on its own, or with smoked salmon canapés.
