Product details
Champagne Pascal Doquet Vertus Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru DIAPASON 2017 reflects the long-standing heritage of the Doquet family and Pascal Doquet’s focus on expressing the character of the Côte des Blancs through carefully tended old vines. The estate traces its roots to Pascal’s grandfather, who consolidated the family’s holdings, including the historic Les Migraines parcel, where vines planted in 1929 continue to contribute depth and character. Pascal Doquet is known for emphasizing vineyard expression and preserving the individuality of its terroirs, with the domaine’s Blanc de Blancs centered on Chardonnay from distinguished chalk-rich sites. For DIAPASON, approximately half of the base is matured in enamel vessels and the remainder in neutral barrels, creating a layered structure while allowing the character of the fruit and site to remain clearly defined.
The aromatic profile opens with distinctive notes of ginger, anise, citrus zest, and sandalwood, reflecting the pronounced savory and spicy character associated with Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. On the palate, the expression is layered and focused, combining depth and richness with a precise, lively edge. Its finish develops with notable definition, bringing the structure into sharper focus and leaving a persistent impression. The result is an elegant and complex Blanc de Blancs that balances mature character with freshness and precision.
