An artisanal Champagne with great personality, produced by Charles Dufour in the Côte des Bar. “Bulles de Comptoir 14” is an original blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc, expressing the authentic character of its terroir. The blend consists of 65% from the 2023 vintage, while the remaining 35% comes from reserve wines dating from 1982 to 2021, adding depth, complexity and character to the wine. Fermentation takes place spontaneously with indigenous yeasts, following a winemaking philosophy that respects the natural expression of the grapes. The wine is then aged for 18 months in Burgundy pièces and large-format oak vats, allowing it to develop greater complexity, structure and harmony. An authentic and unconventional Extra Brut, perfect for those looking for a Champagne with a strong sense of place, complexity and distinctive character.

The Le Celles-Lès-Condé Autre Cru "Les Echaudèes" from Rousseaux-Batteux is an interesting expression of Champagne, with a particular focus on Pinot Meunier, which represents 100% of the cuvée. The vines, with an age of 40 years, grow in the prestigious cru of Celles-Lès-Condé, known for its microclimate and soil favorable to viticulture. The choice to ferment in oak barrels gives the wine complexity and depth, while the 14-month aging in wood helps to further develop its aromas and give it an elegant structure. The relatively low dosage of 2-3 g/l underlines the intent to maintain the purity and authenticity of the wine, allowing the character of Pinot Meunier to express itself at its best. This Champagne has typical fruity and floral notes, with a fine texture and freshness that make it suitable both for an aperitif and to accompany more elaborate dishes. The care and attention that the producers dedicate to this Champagne reflects a winemaking tradition that enhances terroir and variety.

The Champagne Grand Cru "Blanc de Noirs" Extra Brut from Rousseaux-Batteux is a fascinating wine that embodies the expressiveness and complexity of Pinot Noir, grown in the prestigious Grand Cru area of Verzenay. The choice to make wine practically in oak barrels gives the wine a unique depth and character, enriching the aromatic bouquet with complex tones of ripe fruit and spices. The long maturation on the yeasts for approximately 20 months before disgorgement allows the champagne to develop a particular creaminess and finesse, while maintaining a lively freshness, typical of Extra Brut. The low sugar dosage, located between 5-6 g/l, further enhances the purity of the wine and its ability to express the unique terroir of the region.
