The Camille Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs cuvée is the very first Champagne from Olivier Bonville, originally from Champagne Franck Bonville. The Grapes are sourced from the terroir of Avize, which has richness and diversity. The champagne is named after his daughter Camille and is 100% Grand Cru Chardonnay from vineyards in Avize as well. Main nuances are green apple, brioche, plum and tasty on both nose and palate. Can be very aromatic and rich with white flowers notes. It has a fruity but refreshing entry with a distinguished mild-tart of a green apple, intense brioche, toasty and “Cream Brûlée” on the mid-range taste. Fantastic mouthfeel, dry, sharp and accentuated minerality. Paired with Thai seafood and was magnificent! — 9 months ago

This Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs cuvée N/V truly combines the finest expression of the characteristic freshness coming from the Avize terroir, in Reims, France. The 100% Chardonnay grapes selected for this Champagne are harvested and pressed by the family on their premises. Everything, including the traditional process is centered in Avize, The musts and the completion of the winemaking process are fully vinified by Olivier Bonville in the heart of the village.
The results; an extremely aromatic on the nose with solid notes of candied lemon peel, and some fresh zesty lemon. On the palate, it shows its substance of its richness from the aging on lees and the winemaking precision and complexity brought by Olivier Bonville, a winemaker of the Côte of the Whites.
The mouthfeel as overall, particularly on the mid-palate is driven with a lot of finesse and elegancy with brioche flavors, and the finish is long with some chalky character and diversity. Cheers!
