Charles Orban
Troissy Brut Blanc De Blancs Champagne Blend
Vallée de la Marne, Champagne, France
Every night is a champagne night right?
I have to admit it is my go-to tipple for celebrations though! This one we even sabred 🗡 open as we were celebrating some exciting news for our business - Grand Cru Digital (yep and our business name is a champagne reference too 😜).
We picked it up for $45 from Dan Murphy’s - the bosses wallet wouldn’t stretch very far 😂
Charles Orban is a grower/producer and this Blanc de Blancs is made of 100% Chardonnay.
In the glass it’s a pale silver gold colour. Notes of green apples, citrus zest and arrowroot bickies come through on the nose. While in the mouth it’s smooth yet leaves a zingy feel on your tongue like you’ve just eaten a ton of pineapple. There’s also a hint of almond croissant 🥐 in there too.
All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective & always evolving, so make sure you drink what you enjoy!

Nothing says ‘I love you’ like a bottle of champagne - trust me guys! I spotted this bottle of very lonely looking champas recently on the Dan Murphy’s shelves for about $50 and thought I better give it some company 😜
Champagne Charles Orban Blanc de Blancs is made from 100% Chardonnay and is a ‘non-vintage’. This means it’s a blend of grapes from different years, aka their house style which they try to keep the same every year. Orban is a grower/producer - I’d highly recommend reading ‘Bursting Bubbles’ for more info on how the vineyards in the Champagne region work.
It’s a lemon juice colour on the eye. Creamy notes of vanilla oak, nutty brioche and spiced citrus jump out of the glass at me. While in the mouth it’s smooth and citrusy with flavours of juicy apples weaved through freshly baked pastry. Highly enjoyable!
