The wine's story:<\/span><\/h3>

\u00c0 Deux Pas<\/strong> means in French \u201ctwo steps away\u201d<\/em>. The name refers to the proximity of the village of Avize to Le Mesnil-sur-Oger \u2013 two Grand Cru areas of the C\u00f4te des Blancs whose styles are similar yet distinct in character.<\/p>

While Le Mesnil-sur-Oger is known for a more austere and very chalky Chardonnay, Wines from Avize often have slightly broader fruit and a rounder texture<\/strong>, while still retaining the mineral clarity of the C\u00f4te des Blancs.<\/p>

Girard-Bonnet\u2019s \u00c0 Deux Pas focuses precisely on this Avize character. It is a wine that combines pure Chardonnay fruit, chalky minerality and a fine mousse<\/strong>, while offering slightly more depth and texture than Mesnil-style Champagnes.<\/p>

Winemaking:<\/span><\/p>

The grapes come from from Avize Grand Cru vineyards<\/strong>, where Chardonnay grows on the chalky soils of the C\u00f4te des Blancs. The grapes are hand-picked to preserve fruit quality and optimal ripeness.<\/p>

Pressing is gentle and fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks and neutral oak barrels<\/strong>. This combination preserves a pure fruit profile while adding a little more texture to the wine.<\/p>

After the primary fermentation, the wine matures for a long time on the lees<\/strong>, which gives the Champagne complexity and a fine mousse before recorking.<\/p>

Tasting notes:<\/span><\/h3>

On the nose come lemon peel, ripe pear and white peach<\/strong>, complemented by white blossom and chalky minerality<\/strong>. Maturation on the lees gives the wine nuances of brioche, toasted almond and a hint of hazelnut<\/strong>.<\/p>

On the palate, the wine is precise and mineral<\/strong>, but its Avize origins give the mid-palate a little more fruit and texture<\/strong>. Citrusy acidity keeps the wine fresh and balanced. The finish is long, dry and lightly saline<\/strong>, where notes of chalk and citrus linger.<\/p>

Food pairing:<\/span><\/p>

\u00c0 Deux Pas pairs well with dishes where what matters is a balance between freshness and texture<\/strong>.<\/p>

A good match, for example:<\/p>

  • scallops or langoustine<\/p><\/li>

  • steamed or grilled white fish<\/p><\/li>

  • seafood salad or ceviche<\/p><\/li>

  • creamier fish dishes, for example with beurre blanc sauce<\/p><\/li><\/ul>

    Avize\u2019s slightly broader fruit profile allows the wine to pair well with with slightly creamier sauces and more textured dishes<\/strong>, while the citrusy acidity keeps the dish and the wine in balance.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Ageing potential:<\/span><\/h3>

    \u00c0 Deux Pas develops well in bottle 8\u201312 years<\/strong>. Over time the aromas deepen and there emerge ripe apple, toasted nuts and brioche nuances<\/strong>, while the wine's mineral structure remains clearly perceptible.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
