Ployez-Jacquemart Champagne Extra Quality Brut Blanc de Blancs NV SPCALIFORNIA Tropical fruits on entryLaurence Ployez, a third generation winemaker, crafts this Champagne exclusively from Chardonnay of Premier and Grand Cru vineyards in the Montagne de Reims' chalk rich slopes. Only first pressed juice enters her wines, and she maintains very little reserve wine to preserve the character of each vintage.
