Vendor code : 1636
We offer access to Champagne Diebolt-Vallois Prestige Blanc de Blancs Brut Magnum — rarely available on the open market.
Champagne Diebolt-Vallois Prestige Blanc de Blancs Brut is made from 100% Chardonnay sourced from Grand Cru vineyards in Cramant, Chouilly, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger and Oger in the Côte des Blancs. It is vinified in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, with a portion fermented in foudres for the Perpetual Reserve, which dates back to 2009 and is aged in oak. The assemblage is built over several years. The wine was bottled for tirage in 2022 and aged on lees for four years prior to disgorgement. The dosage is 4 g/L (Extra Brut). This Blanc de Blancs shows precision and balance, combining freshness with structural depth derived from older reserve wines. Aromas include citrus peel, white flowers, almond and brioche. The palate is structured, with fine acidity and a persistent finish.

Gismondi on Wine
The Diebolt and Vallois families have serious history in the Côte des Blancs. The Vallois family has been growing vines in Cuis since the 15th century; the grandfather of current proprietor Jacques Diebolt began making estate bottled champagne at the beginning of the 20th century. Champagne Diebolt-Vallois was created in 1960, when Jacques married Nadia Vallois and merged the estate. This Blanc de Blancs blends Cramant, Chouilly, and Le Mesnil sur Oger, all fermented in stainless, then moved to large oak foudres until final cepage is determined. The reserve wines were also kept in large oak foudres. The wine spent three years on lees prior to disgorgement with 9 g/l. Ample patisserie, nougat, green apple, lemon are held in by a brace of citrus acidity that circles the growing expansive middle, finishing with a riffing citrus pith that lingers long and filagreed. This has a fine touch that reels the density in deftly, allowing for a highly drinkable rich champagne.
