94 AG "Well, perhaps making an exception for Agrapart's 2005 Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Minéral. The trademark Agrapart tension and energy is alive in the glass. Pure crystalline and nuanced, the 2005 once again proved why it is one of the wines of the year. More than a wine of the year, though, the Mineral really reflects the extraordinary diligence and passion of Pascal Agrapart. What a great showing."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
The northerly region that gives its name to the world's most celebrated sparkling wine, made by secondary fermentation in bottle from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Chalky soils and a cool climate yield wines of finesse and longevity.
The sole appellation for true Champagne, producing sparkling wines of finesse and complexity by traditional method from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
