Who makes it

Champagne Claude Cazals has RM status. The house is a small family estate. The Clos Cazals parcel has never used insecticides.

Where it grows

The Côte des Blancs is a Champagne subregion associated with Chardonnay. Chardonnay brings acidity and citrus to sparkling wine. Champagne Claude Cazals has vineyard parcels in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Oger, Vertus and Villeneuve. The village spread keeps the house within this part of Champagne.

What they make

The range is built from the family's own holdings under RM status, with Clos Cazals as the named site bottling. The wine comes from the walled Grand Cru parcel in Oger, planted entirely with Chardonnay. A clos is a vineyard enclosed by walls, and Grand Cru names the village classification on the label, not a grape or cellar method. The house style combines delicacy, aromatic power and the capacity for long ageing. Bottle ageing can soften the bubbles and deepen the aromas over time.
