A breath of fresh air in the Vallée de la Marne! Hélène and Jean-Baptiste Lointier, a young and extremely friendly winemaking couple, only disgorge 3,000 to 5,000 bottles of champagne per year. They have been cultivating three hectares of vineyards in the western Marne Valley since 2007 and have only been processing some of their grapes themselves since 2016

Like many winegrowers, they have a great passion for the different terroirs of their vineyards. They also practise a respectful approach to nature: herbicides and insecticides are taboo. Naturally, they emphasise the best grape quality, clean working practices and respectful treatment of nature. Certification for the organic seal has been in progress since 2019.

The Lointiers have always been enthusiastic hobby beekeepers, which is why the logo and the name of the Cuvée Mellifera are a tribute to bees. The wine is vinified in oak barrels, some of which are made from wood from their own forest. The Lointiers are also big fans of ageing in amphorae

The wines are neither filtered nor fined. Sulphurisation is reduced to an absolute minimum. Malolactic fermentation is not used. The champagnes resulting from this gentle and artisanal production are extremely strong in character, recognisable and unique - with an enormous drinking flow!
