Patrick et Valerie Renaux-Soutiran

Time is one of the most important raw materials... 5 to 8 years of patience are necessary to elaborate our vintages and bring them to maturity. This long rest in our cellars reveals the structure of the wines, refines the effervescence and contributes to their complexity.this complexity also comes from the blending of a large aromatic palette resulting from vinification in wood and stainless steel and from the particular attention paid to the reserve wines.the most beautiful plots are vinified in Burgundian oak barrels, bringing an additional organoleptic profile to the blends. The reserve wines are a real treasure of the estate and guarantee the continuity of the style of the cuvées. Always of the highest quality, the selected wines are kept in large stainless steel vats to preserve their freshness over time. Thanks to a system of perpetual rejuvenation, many years of harvest are accumulated in the same tank. The richness of the old wines mingles with the tonicity of the new year's wines. This know-how gives birth to rich and racy cuvées in which the terroir expresses itself in a subtle way. When tasted, the noses are expressive, asserting themselves with intensity. On the palate, the champagnes are fleshy, dense, with an often creamy texture underlined by a saline minerality coming from our chalky soils.
