The Champagne Brut Blanc de Blancs AOC "Fleur de Passion" from the renowned Diebolt-Vallois winery embodies the absolute elegance and sophistication that this region of France can express through its sparkling wines. Made exclusively from carefully selected Chardonnay grapes, this champagne is the result of meticulous winemaking that adheres to strict AOC (Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée) production guidelines.

"Fleur de Passion" stands out with its bright straw yellow color and greenish reflections, typical of high-quality blanc de blancs. On the nose, this champagne offers a complex and enticing bouquet with notes of white flowers, green apple, citrus, and fresh yeast, indicative of a long maturation on the lees.

On the palate, freshness is predominant, supported by lively acidity and a very fine perlage that delicately dances. Flavors of white flesh fruits such as pear and melon blend harmoniously with hints of almond and minerals, leading to a long and persistent finish that invites another sip.

This champagne pairs beautifully with sophisticated starters, fish dishes, or seafood, but is also perfect as an aperitif. Its elegance and complexity make it ideal for special occasions or as a meaningful gift for sparkling wine enthusiasts.

Ultimately, Diebolt-Vallois' "Fleur de Passion" is an excellent example of how terroir, craftsmanship, and passion can converge in a glass of champagne, offering an unforgettable experience.

Winery history
The Diebolt family has been present in Cramant since the late 19th century. Sources indicate that Jacques Diebolt was active in the village from 1959; with his marriage to Nadia Vallois the Diebolt‑Vallois name took shape and the estate developed over time, later passing to subsequent generations. The house became known for quality cuvées, in particular the Fleur de Passion, produced in vintages judged excellent and often vinified using traditional methods.
Production philosophy
Strong focus on the terroir of the Côte des Blancs and on highlighting Chardonnay; a cellar style oriented to low dosage, respect for traditional practices in the flagship cuvées and limited-scale production to emphasize the quality and identity of the vineyards.
Terroir and vineyards
Based in Cramant in the Côte des Blancs, with grapes also coming from nearby villages such as Cuis and Chouilly and from selected parcels in the Mesnil area; the Pinot grapes destined for the cuvées come from parcels on the Montagne de Reims and in some areas of the Côte des Bar, as described by the house.
