Tasting Note:
Nos Terres Blanches is a focused, mineral-driven Blanc de Blancs that leans more savory than showy. Aromas of lemon peel, green apple, and white flowers lead into subtle notes of almond, chalk, and brioche. On the palate, it’s crisp and linear, with fine, persistent bubbles and a bright citrus core. Chalky minerality and saline lift carry through the finish, giving the wine precision, energy, and excellent food versatility.

About the Producer:
Gallois-Bouché is a family-run grower Champagne based in Villers-Marmery, a rare Chardonnay stronghold within the Vallée de la Marne. Franck Gallois farms estate vineyards with a focus on sustainable practices and careful parcel expression. In the cellar, the approach is classic and restrained—stainless steel fermentations, full malolactic conversion, long lees aging, and judicious dosage. The result is Champagne that emphasizes purity, balance, and terroir, with Chardonnay expressions that highlight Villers-Marmery’s chalky soils and cool elegance.
