The Riceys Blanc 'En Valingrain' by Oliver Horiot is a white wine made from a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc harvested in 2017 from the south-facing hillside same-name plot. Vinification and maturation takes place in only 3 barrels for a total production of 980 bottles and 35 magnums.
The Riceys Blanc "En Valingrain" by Oliver Horiot is initially fresh on the nose with citrus notes, after a few minutes in the glass it opens up with superb aromas typical of Burgundy such as butter, brioche, almonds and yellow fruits. The palate is mineral and decidedly long. A great white wine by Riceys.
Domaine Olivier Horiot, with a vineyard area of about 8.5 hectares, is located in Côte des Bar, the southernmost area of Champagne, and more precisely in the Ricey Village, where, in addition to the AOC Champagne, two other appellations coexist, namely Côteaux Champenois and Rosé des Riceys. The family-run property has been led for several generations by Olivier Horiot.
Through his own production of Champagne and still wines (Rosé des Riceys and Coteaux Champenois), he has refocused attention to so-called "Cépage Oublies", or forgotten grape varieties (Arbane, Petit Meslier, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Gris), in addition to the classic Pinot Noir, Meunier and Chardonnay.
Olivier Horiot has approached the principles of organic and biodynamic agriculture with a focus on the cycles of nature without the use of harmful chemicals; furthermore, in the vineyards ploughing is carried out using horses to minimise environment impact.
Vinification is carried out by "lieu-dit" in order to bring out the differences that each parcel of vineyard translates into notes that surprise the palate during the tasting. The Kimmeridgian soil dominated by limestone and clay give to Olivier Horiot's wines character, finesse and balance and reflect a continuous commitment to quality.
