Champagne Chavost "Blanc d'Assemblage" Brut Nature

this is the signature multi-varietal natural cuvée from one of Champagne's most radical artisan domains: the Champagne Chavost "Blanc d'Assemblage" Brut Nature. Masterminded by cellar master Fabian Daviaux in the village of Chavot-Courcourt, Chavost crafts terroir-transparent wines under a strict natural philosophy—utilizing only native yeasts, completely omitting added sulfites (sans soufre ajouté), and bottling unfiltered with zero dosage. This cuvée marries equal parts Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier, seamlessly balancing vibrant citrus cut with juicy orchard fruit flesh. The nose opens with an aromatic burst of green apple, Bartlett pear, lemon zest, and white flowers, layered over subtle biscuit, dried herbs, and chalky crushed stone. On the palate, it is bone-dry, taut, and energetic, featuring a pinpoint mousse alongside a driving spine of acidity that finishes clean, savory, and refreshingly saline.
