Henriet-Bazin Cuvée Hypolite Blanc de Blancs fût de chêne
100% Chardonnay Dosage: 4,5g/l At least 3 years of bottle maturity vinified in oak barrels Nicolas: "There is no special meaning behind this name. It's just a name that my wife Marie-Noelle and I really like. A long time ago we had the desire to mature our basic wine in wooden barrels (otherwise we still use enamel tanks but no stainless steel). At first we used used barrels from Burgundy, but this solution did not support our terroir as wine and barrels do not come from the same area. Next we bought new barrels, which were also made from French wood and hoped that our terroir could spread there and take possession of the wood. But we still weren't satisfied with that. There was still a lack of energy. Finally we found a manufacturer who agreed to make oak barrels from our forest. It was the only way for us to respect our terroir and make a champagne that only comes from our village. The oak was from the Chardonnay site of Villers-Marmery, so we made a single-variety Chardonnay cuvee. Hypolite on the label is well dressed, but more like a gentleman-farmer style because the character of the cuvée is stronger: strong but elegant. There is a “baby” oak on the front of the bike. Because he felled an oak for the barrel, he wants to plant a new one for the next generation. And because we work with the moon phase at every step, Hypolite searches for the moon to find the best place and the best moment for it." Tasting SEP20: Genreous prelude with present but fine wood aromas, salty towards the back, with honey and vanilla notes, slim in delivery due to low dosage, also has something classy, with minimally bitter notes, wonderful character! Still young at the moment, will become even more generous over time.

Marie Courtin Cuvée Présence - Bio
70% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot BlancDosage 0g/lFrom a single vineyard in PolisotMatured in stainless steelBottle ageing: 3 yearsTilman AUG24: The nose is stony, citrusy, pleasantly tart, slightly yellow-fruity and a little exotic fruit. Dark, slightly smoky on the palate, the fruit is rather restrained, but the structure is amazing. It is grippy, constantly evolves in the glass, takes up the whole mouth, but always remains fresh, mineral and salty. Fascinating length, something to ponder and savour!Tasting SEP21: Soft, charming, subtle wood, harmonious, soft, very well-integrated acidity. Pear, white flowers, floral (all typical of Pinot Blanc) - bottle is empty surprisingly quickly!

Average age of the vines: 40-50 years The unbranched vines are pressed with a traditional Coquard press and fermented in 400 and 228 liter wooden vats without the addition of yeast. After fermentation, the wine remains in the barrel on its lees for up to 10 months, during which time it undergoes malolactic fermentation. Approx. 95% from one year with a Minimum share of a perpetual reserve (start 2001) The champagne is bottled unfiltered and without dosage. Peter Liem: The primary wine of the estate is a blanc de noirs called Fidèle, made entirely of pinot noir and almost exclusively from Kimmeridgian soils in Biaunes and Vouette. It’s largely composed of a single year, with just three to seven percent of reserve wine, stored in a perpetual blend (a sort of mini-solera) started in 2001.
