Champagne Larmandier-Bernier Grand Cru Les Chemins d'Avize 2016 (Disg. Sep 24) castro-ventosa Grenache BlancLes Chemins dAvize debuted in 2009. For this cuve, the Larmandier family vinifies fruit from two tiny plots in the heart of Avize (Chemin de Plivot, planted in 1955, and Chemin de Flavigny, planted in 1960). Both are chalky parcels with very little topsoil and lie on the lower slopes of Avize, not far from Agrapart and Selosses La Fosse vineyard. Initially, it was really tough for the vines to grow here, the soil is so hard, Arthur Larmandier told us.
