2009 M. Hostomme & Fils Vikka Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut Champagne Grand Cru

Straight from the coast of Brittany, from the abyss of the Atlantic Ocean, this vintage has not taken the shortest route to reach us. The journey began in Champagne, but like the most distant Viking ancestors, the soul of an explorer led her to other shores. Her name, Vikka, means 'traveler, adventurer' in Old Norse. It was chosen as a tribute to our family's Scandinavian roots, which certainly play a role in our tribe's spirit and our taste for exploration. This 2009 blanc de vins was submerged after 12 months of disgorgement at 60 meters below sea level, in the most extreme tip of France, near the island of Ouessant. In this place, buffeted by waves and wind, an almost mystical symbiosis takes place between the seabed and the chalky Champagne terroir.

Champagne M. Hostomme 'VIKKA' is a unique Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru from 2009! Each bottle is different and has a unique number printed on the back of the box. This Millésime champagne is an 'extra brut' with barely 4 grams of sugar per liter of champagne. The champagne was bottled in April 2010. The disgorgement took place 10 years later. After disgorgement, the champagne matured on the seabed from July 2020 to August 2021. Here there is a unique constant temperature due to the water at depth.
