90% Pinot Meunier, 10% Pinot Noir and Chardonnay Dosage: 0g/l 60% reserve wines Vinified in used oak Tasting OKT22: Wiry and taut, flinty and straight, subtle yellow fruity freshness, cool, uncompromising and stimulating.

Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier Dosage: 0g/l vinified in oak for 8 months 18 months of bottle maturity Peter Liem: Laval releases his non-vintage champagne as both a brut and a brut nature: the brut usually has between four and five grams of sugar per liter, while the brut nature is, obviously, non-dosé. In the past, Georges Laval used to make this wine with one-third of each variety, but since 1992 the percentage of chardonnay has been increased, and today Vincent Laval's blends are normally made up of about half chardonnay, although the exact proportions can change according to the base year. In addition, the proportion of reserve wine can vary dramatically: some versions are actually made entirely from a single year, while others can incorporate small amounts of wine from previous years, as Laval sees fit. With Laval's meticulous selection and attention to detail, this is hardly an ordinary non-vintage brut, often showing a level of expression and complexity that can rival other producers' vintage champagnes, and it is also a wine that's well worth keeping in the cellar.

Chardonnay, Pinot Noir und Meunier Dosage: 0g/l Single VineyardVincent bought new parcles in the vineyard "Les Chèvres" in Cumières from his uncle and it's currently undergoing conversion to being organically farmed. It's Vincent's first new Champagne since over ten years.    

Pinot Noir, Chardonnay Dosage: 0g/l 

The single vineyard Les Chênes champagne is produced exclusively with Chardonnay. Les Chênes is a renowned vineyard located halfway up the slope along the street to Hautvillers, east of Cumières. There is only a thin soil layer over the chalky parent rock. The first vintage produced only 400 bottles, although today production has expanded to 1800 bottles — produced solely in the finest vintages and only as Brut Nature.

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.
