Georges Laval Les Hautes Chèvres Blanc de Noirs 2020 - Bio
100% Pinot Meunier Dosage: 0g/l Single Vineyard To the west and slightly above Cumières sits 'Les Hautes-Chèvres', where Laval cultivates Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. The darker, more fertile soil of this vineyard contains more clay than that in Les Chênes and the chalk cliffs stretch even deeper. In 2004 Laval produced a pure Pinot Meunier champagne here from this site, and he has continued ever since.

The wines are barrel matured in order to match the concentration and intensity of grapes from these old vines. In each vintage, L’Apôtre is known for presenting the greatest complexity and expressiveness of any of the cuvées.

Robert Moncuit Les Grands Blancs JEROBOAM in wooden box
100% Chardonnay From two Grand Cru terroirs: Le Mesnil, Oger Blend of two consecutive vintages 10 months aging in wood without battonage Unfiltered 2-3 years bottle aging Dosage: 0g/l Malo: Yes Great introduction to the Côte des Blancs! The Chardonnay grapes come from two Grand Cru terroirs: Le Mesnil and Oger. An ideal combination, according to the winemaker Pierre Amillet, because Le Mesnil is very firm and acidic, a little softer Ogre. Tasting: Very fine character; light biscuit and delicate smokiness on the nose, lively and wonderfully fresh on the palate.

Marie Courtin Efflorescence 2019 JEROBOAM - Bio
100% Pinot Noir Dosage: Extra Brut Barrel fermentation, followed by maturation in barrique for 9-10 months. Bottled in spring. The fruit comes from the same site as Resonance and thus shows the same distinctive terroir and minerality. The difference between the two Champagnes thus lies primarily in the barrel influence. When all runs well, oak provides well-made Champagne with a more complex and nuanced character. Rather than standing in the spotlight, the barrel here supports from the wings. It stabilizes and smooths the individual components into a stunning and balanced whole.

Georges Laval "Les Longues Violes" Cumières Premier Cru Brut Nature 2015 - Bio
Les Longues Violes, parcelle mythique de 14a61, appartient à la famille Laval depuis plusieurs générations. Les vignes, des sélections massales, ont été plantées en 1947 (Meunier/3309C), 1964 (Pinot Noir/41B) et 1984 (Pinot Noir/SO4). Le sol n’a jamais reçu d’herbicide, de fertilisation chimique; les vignes, jamais de pesticides de synthèse. Le moût fermente naturellement en fûts de chênes.La qualité, la diversité, la richesse, la finesse des arômes des jus, des vins des Longues Violes alimentaient déjà jadis les conversations de mes aïeux. 2012 est le premier millésime de cuvée Les Longues Violes; 1520 bouteilles ont été créées. Les 480 premières bouteilles ont patienté 50 mois sur lattes avant leur dégorgement.Further information: http://georgeslaval.fr/les-cuvees-biologiques-2/
