Der Champagne La Rogerie Le Bourg Sud ist eine außergewöhnliche Cuvée, entstanden aus einer sorgfältigen Assemblage des Jahrgangs 2021 und einer seit 2018 geführten ewigen Reserve. Dieser Blanc de Blancs stammt ausschließlich von Grand Cru-Lagen südlich von Avize, an den Toren von Oger, und bietet eine umfassende Darstellung des Terroirs zwischen Hangober- und Hangunterseite.
Born from the division of La Rogerie’s Lieux de Vie, the new NV Blanc de Blancs Bourg/Sud derives from sites located in the southern part of the estate. Its inaugural edition is composed of fruit from five lieux-dits, with 95% from Avize and 5% from Oger (just bordering Avize). Predominantly based on the 2021 vintage (matured for eleven months in barrels) and complemented by 10% reserve wines from 2018 to 2020, it was disgorged in January 2024 with two grams per liter dosage. Reflecting the character of the dominant vintage, it’s a wine with an incisive profile, unfurling from the glass with scents of oyster shell, citrus fruit, bread dough and honeysuckle. More nakedly chalky compared to the Champ Bouton, though still with some flesh on the bones, it is laden with bright acidity and concludes with a persistent, sapid finish. François Petit explained that the reason of replacing Lieux de Vie with Bourg/Sud and Bourg/Nord (vineyards north of Avize) is to produce more precise cuvées based on location, a decision that's hard to dispute after tasting this impressive first release.
