Sparkling dry
Diebolt-Vallois is located in the Grand Cru village of Cramant, in the very heart of the Champagne Côte des Blancs region.
This wine is a perfect example of Blanc de Blancs Champagne: pale gold in color, with fine and rapidly rising bubbles, and a rather intense aroma dominated by scents of lemon, quince, almond, and white flowers. On the palate, it is dry, with a soft mousse, remarkably fresh, smooth acidity, and a perfectly balanced flavor with a distinct chalky minerality.
The thin, chalky soil of the region is ideal for growing ‘Chardonnay’, and it is here that Diebolt-Vallois masterfully works with this noble grape variety. “Diebolt-Vallois Blanc de Blancs” is made exclusively from ‘Chardonnay’ grapes grown mainly in the Cuis and Epernay areas.
Dosage – 3 g/l.
Serve at 8-10 °C with with oysters, seafood, fried halibut, seasoned béchamel sauce, fried salmon.
This is fresh and floral on the nose, with a chalky mousse and clean-cut acidity framing flavors of poached pear and white cherry fruit, clover honey and slivered almond on the palate. Lasting, zesty finish of grated ginger and ground spice.
Located in one of the most famous villages of Champagne – Cramant – Jacques Diebolt and Nadia Vallois, together with their children Arnaud and Isabelle, run the small but highly respected Champagne house Diebolt-Vallois.
The majority of the family's 11 hectares of vineyards boast Grand Cru and Premier Cru status. The ‘Chardonnay’ grape, unofficially titled the queen of the Côte des Blancs, reigns supreme in these prestigious lands. Until 1992, this relatively unknown producer suddenly found itself in the spotlight of wine enthusiasts when “Gault Millau,” one of France's most influential restaurant and wine guides, nominated Diebolt-Vallois as Champagne Producer of the Year. Despite this sudden recognition and attention, Diebolt-Vallois has remained a family-run winery, driven by exceptionally warm and friendly people. It is a genuine pleasure for "Vyno Klubas" (Wine Club) to introduce this excellent producer to Lithuanian wine lovers.

The yields from these top-tier vineyards, combined with meticulous work in the cellar, result in the exceptional quality of Diebolt-Vallois Champagnes.
Aging and Drinking Period
Diebolt-Vallois Champagnes are aged for an extended period on their lees, often significantly longer than the appellation rules require. This imparts greater complexity, finer bubbles, and a longer finish. While these Champagnes can be enjoyed in their youth, the top-tier “Blanc de Blancs” have excellent potential to age and evolve for many years, gaining even more elegance and complexity.
