Chartogne-Taillet, Extra Brut 'Les Couarres' 2017

Chartogne-Taillet has arguably the highest quality-to-price ratio in Champagne. Run by the talented Alexandre Chartogne, who spent years working with Anselm Selosse, this grower producer is best-known for its range of single-vineyard bottlings.

Year after year, this is the Chartogne bottling we find ourselves racing through the quickest. It has crispness and minerality that make it easy-drinking, along with complexity that keeps us coming back for another glass (or bottle).
