Made from 100% pinot meunier grapes growing in a peaceful plot overlooking the village of Chigny-les-Roses, Champagne Gounel Lassalle's Parcellaire Les Agneaux is vinified for nine months in oak and aged for a further three years in bottle, imbuing it with notes of toasted almonds and buttery brioche. Enjoy it with seared scallops in a beurre blanc.

Parcellaire Les Agneaux

A small grower‑producer based in the Premier Cru village of Chigny‑les‑Roses, Gounel‑Lassalle has roots dating back to 1870. Now led by Arnaud Gounel and Sophie Lassalle, the domaine works five hectares farmed sustainably.

Parcellaire Les Agneaux

After decades supplying a cooperative, the couple became independent Récoltant‑Manipulants in 2018, developing a modern identity focused on purity, site expression and zero‑dosage cuvées. Les Agneaux reflects their Premier Cru terroir, emphasising chalk influence, parcel specificity and a precise, contemporary Champagne style.

In the winery, vinification lasts nine months in oak barrels. The wine is then aged for 36 months and bottled on natural cork once on the lees. For this bottling, the wine is not dosed to allow the terroir to express itself freely.

Tasting
NOTES

A refreshing sparkling wine with fine bubbles and a gentle mousse displaying the pleasantness of pinot meunier in its purest and most refined form. Tart and well balanced, it's a high acid fizz with a mineral core offering notes of white flowers, apricots, peaches, plums, toasted almonds and buttery brioche. Its time spent in oak adds texture and complexity to the palate, making it both a great apéritif and a wine to serve with food.

PAIRINGS

This 100% pinot meunier Champagne would pair well with grilled sea bass in a citrus sauce, seared scallops in a beurre blanc, and yellowtail crudo with a yuzu dressing.
