De Sousa Avec le Temps Blanc de Blancs Extra-Brut Grand Cru Avize Conversion

De Sousa Avec le Temps Blanc de Blancs Extra-Brut Grand Cru Avize is a beautifully precise Champagne that showcases the elegance of 100% Chardonnay from one of the Côte des Blancs’ most prized villages. Sourced from Grand Cru vineyards in Avize and shaped by De Sousa’s patient, terroir-driven approach, it offers remarkable purity, depth, and a distinctive mineral backbone. The name “Avec le Temps” — with time — reflects the house philosophy of allowing the wine’s character to develop with care and restraint.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, this Blanc de Blancs shines with a bright golden hue and an exceptionally fine, persistent mousse. The bouquet is layered and expressive, revealing ripe citrus, white flowers, brioche, and a subtle chalky mineral note that speaks clearly of Avize’s exceptional terroir. On the palate, it is both rich and refined, with a creamy texture balanced by fresh, precise acidity. Flavours of ripe apple, lemon, almond, and a delicate touch of honey unfold across the palate, leading to a long, elegant finish marked by saline minerality and vibrant freshness. While already impressive now, its structure and concentration suggest strong aging potential, allowing the wine to gain even more complexity over time.

Viininvalmistus
This Champagne comes from Grand Cru vineyards in Avize, in the heart of the Côte des Blancs, where chalk-rich soils and a cool climate provide ideal conditions for Chardonnay. The wine is made from old vines, which contribute concentration, depth, and a more complex aromatic profile. De Sousa is known for biodynamic farming, and the cuvée reflects a careful, low-intervention approach designed to preserve the character of the vineyard. As an Extra-Brut Blanc de Blancs, it is vinified to emphasize precision, purity, and the natural expression of the fruit and terroir.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This Champagne is an excellent match for oysters, lobster, scallops, sushi, grilled white fish, and fine poultry dishes, as well as aged hard cheeses. Serve it well chilled, ideally at 8–10°C. Decanting is not necessary, though allowing the wine a few minutes in the glass can help reveal its aromatic layers.
