This cuvée from the Marne Valley is a tribute to artisanal craftsmanship. Made primarily from Pinot Meunier, it is produced without added sulfur and aged on the lees for six years. This gives it a refined structure and great purity, enhanced by partial malolactic fermentation. Its clay-loam and marl-limestone terroir further enriches its aromas, while offering a velvety texture and remarkable elegance on the palate.

Our take on this vintage

Upon opening, the delicate nose of this cuvée requires ample aeration to fully reveal its character. It invites an olfactory exploration that lingers with subtle and elegant notes. On the palate, the experience is just as enchanting, with a velvety texture that envelops the palate. The finesse and roundness of the flavors develop harmoniously, leading to a seductive finish marked by salty nuances.

Françoise Bedel has established herself as a leading figure in biodynamic winemaking in Champagne, producing wines with a unique character. Her cuvées, often aged for extended periods, develop a creamy texture underpinned by a refined Meunier. The fruity notes remain distinct despite the wine’s rich style, supported by supple acidity and a subtle minerality. Barrel aging for certain cuvées adds depth without diminishing the finesse of the bubbles. A singular world, where time plays a central role.
