Ozanne ist ein rassiger Blanc de Blancs mit intensiven Aromen und einer cremigen Textur. Er entsteht auf dem Grand Cru Terroir von Avize. Nach einem Ausbau im Fass reift Ozanne 36 Monate in der Flasche. Michel Fallon arbeitet seit drei Jahrzehnten mit Anselme Selosse zusammen. Er selbst produziert einige wenige hundert Flaschen Ozanne, welche von Reben stammen, die seiner Familie gehören.

The May 2017 disgorgement of Fallon's NV Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Ozanne is showing brilliantly, wafting from the glass with aromas of citrus oil, crisp yellow orchard fruit, freshly baked bread, toasted nuts, candied peel and honeycomb. Full-bodied, vinous and concentrated, it's layered and textural, with a bright spine of acidity, a pearly enlivening mousse and a long, intensely sapid finish. Its combination of power and tension makes this the finest wine I've tasted from Fallon to date. Of course, finding any of the thousand or so bottles released every year is next to impossible, but readers able to track one or two down are in for a treat. - WK 09/2021

The NV Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Ozanne is laced with gorgeous scents of pastry, brioche, citrus, white flowers and yellow orchard fruit. Warm, oxidative tones add breadth and volume, but the wine remains weightless, impeccable and pure. The delineated, crystalline finish leaves a lasting impression. This is a super-impressive showing from a producer who appears to have a very bright future. Ozanne is the old, historical name by which Avize was known prior to 796.
