Pierre Péters Les Chétillons 2008 is a vintage blanc de blancs Champagne produced by Pierre Péters in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, France. Established in 1858, Pierre Péters is a grower champagne producer whose vineyards are located in Le Mesnil sur Oger, in the very heart of the Côte des Blancs. Les Chétillons Cuvée Spéciale is a blanc de blancs made with 100% Chardonnay grapes. After spending six years on the lees, the wine was disgorged in July 2021, with a residual sugar of only 4g per litre. On the 2008. "Les Chétillons articulates its mineral birthplace with greater precision than anywhere in Champagne outside the thundering single vineyards of Krug itself, and no vintage expresses this more exhilaratingly than 2008. Its length is in another league, navigating undeterred for minutes, propelled by an acid line that shimmers like jet exhaust." Decanter, 2016

The 2008 Blanc de Blancs Cuvée Speciale is a blend of fruit from Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Oger, Avize and Cramant. Deep, resonant and beautifully layered in the glass, the 2008 is super-impressive. I especially admire the way the wine fleshes out with a bit of air. Citrus, sage, menthol and dried flowers add nuance to what is a very powerful wine. The 2008 saw full malolactic fermentation, with some bâtonnage for added texture. This is a superb showing from the Rothschild family. - Antonio Galloni

A Highly Respected Grower

Rodolphe Péters, head of Champagne Pierre Péters, is a fascinating and highly regarded grower who has around seventeen hectares of vineyards in Champagne, mostly in the Grand Crus of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. Rodolphe makes bold, expressive wines that utilise a full malolactic, high temperature fermentation to balance the clean, zippy acidity naturally found in the Champagne grapes he farms.

Rodolphe's vintage bottlings now have a cult status among Champagne lovers while his non-vintage 'Cuvée de Réserve' and 'Extra Brut' are as accessible as they are delicious, made with around 30% reserve wines from a decades old solera system.
