Philosophy

/

Wine - like life - is marked by encounters which build character and guide us through our life journey. Vines draw life from the very heart of the soil and pass on its characteristics into the fruits.
Our role consists of highlighting the potential expressed in wine. The wines of Champagne - gold is to be found not in bottles, but in our vineyards.
This is why we work the land and treat it with the greatest respect, in order to harvests the best it can possibly offer. We use organic amendments, work the soil and lay grass in certain parcels and we fight insects or vine disease in an environmentally responsible manner. With our strong commitment to sustainable wine-production, we do our utmost to preserve the natural balance of this biodiversity so dear to us.

The Wines

/

Our wines are all produced in oak barrels.
Barrels are of varied capacity, origin and age in order to reveal the diverse range of characteristics of our wines and the complexity of their blends, essential to the spirit of champagne.
Immediately after the pressing process is terminated, the musts are placed in barrels to ferment. They are left in contact with their lees for 6 months and stirred at varying intervals depending on the year.
Malolactic fermentation is prevented in order to preserve the freshness of the wines after a long ageing process within the cellars. Instead, once bottled our wines mature slowly for 5 or 6 years for the youngest and between 8 to 10 years for vintage wines. This slow development allows our wines to fully develop for guaranteed maximum pleasure.
