Blanc de Blancs from the Côte des Blancs, crafted by Guiborat. Citrus, chalk, and white flowers, with a taut, saline attack and remarkable precision.
Champagne Téthys Blancs de Blancs Grand Cru, Guiborat
Born from the storied terroirs of Cramant, Oiry, and Chouilly, the Champagne Téthys Blancs de Blancs Grand Cru reveals the most refined and mineral reading of the Guiborat domaine. Sébastien and Joël Guiborat pursue their work with scrupulous attention: respectful viticulture, careful observation of chalky soils, mature but always fresh harvests, and restrained winemaking that lets Chardonnay speak without artifice.
Téthys comes exclusively from Grand Cru parcels, some over 50 years old, rooted deep in the compact chalk of the Côte des Blancs. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel to preserve the crystalline expression of the grape, followed by extended ageing on lees that adds relief and texture without heavying the wine. The Guiborat style is immediate: a taut, saline Blanc de Blancs, vibrant and sculpted by chalk.
The nose opens on neroli, damp chalk, green apple, and a whisper of candied citrus. The palate is tense and luminous, unfolding a fine, almost tactile texture where minerality dominates, leading into a long, ascending finish of pristine purity, the signature of great Cramant Chardonnays.
Food pairings and service: try with sashimi, shellfish, scallop carpaccio, or lightly aged soft cheese. Serve around 9°C. Drinking window: 5 to 10 years, with a profile that gains breadth while holding its mineral finesse.
