The Champagne Brut Blanc de Blancs ‘Apanage’ by Pommery is a sparkling wine made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, appreciated for its graceful expressive finesse. The nerve center of Maison Pommery is the city of Reims, where the majestic structure housing the winery's vinification facilities stands. The palace was built in the second half of the 1800s by Madame Pommery in Elizabethan neo-Gothic style, reflecting the taste of the British, great lovers of Champagne. Moreover, 30 meters below the palace, 18 kilometers of underground galleries carved into the gypsum are articulated, where the bottles of Pommery rest in absolute quiet.
The Blanc de Blancs Champagne Pommery Brut ‘Apanage’ is a 100% Chardonnay from vineyards spread across 17 different villages in Champagne, represented by a solid base of crus from the Côte des Blancs, the land of the best Chardonnays, complemented by vineyards from the Montagne de Reims and the hill of Nogent l’Abesse, a municipality on the outskirts of the city of Reims where Chardonnay still reigns. The vintage wine is obtained from the white vinification of these grapes, with soft pressing and fermentationin stainless steel tanks. This is followed by the creation of the sparkling base through the addition of a high percentage of reserve wine, with the subsequent refermentation that occurs in the bottle according to the Champenoise Method, associated with at least 42 months of aging on the lees before disgorgement and subsequent dosage to Brut.
The Champagne ‘Apanage’ Blanc de Blancs Brut by Pommery has a golden yellow hue with greenish reflections.

Fresh and elegant is the entry on the palate, perfectly balanced, with a straightforward finish that recalls the mineral perceptions of the nose.
