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.

Champagne Françoise Bedel
Champagne | France
Françoise Bedel has established herself as a prominent figure in Champagne biodynamics, crafting wines imbued with a unique patina. The cuvées, often aged for extended periods, develop a creamy texture underpinned by a finely sculpted Meunier. Fruity notes remain distinct despite the richness of the style, supported by supple acidity and a subtle salinity. Barrel fermentation for certain cuvées adds complexity without diminishing the finesse of the effervescence. A singular universe where time plays a pivotal role.
