A family estate and a terroir of excellence

The vineyard stretches over 4 hectares spread between Arrentieres, Colombe-le-Sec, Colombe-la-Fosse and Voigny:

Pinot Noir (66%), typical of the Cote des Bar.

Chardonnay (22%), for its finesse and minerality.

Pinot Meunier (12%), which brings suppleness and roundness.

The clay-limestone soils and the ideal exposure of the slopes allow the grapes to develop all their aromatic richness.


A sustainable and certified viticulture

No chemical weedkiller, and mechanical work of the soils.

Controlled natural grass cover, soil analyses and organic inputs.

Hedges and biodiversity favoured, in the service of the living.

Certified Terra Vitis since 2014, the estate is in the process of certification for Sustainable Viticulture in Champagne and HVE level 3.


A 100% artisanal production

From pruning to bottling, all the stages are done by hand. The grapes are pressed whole, vinified in small stainless-steel vats, and each blend is designed with precision. The lees ageing extends from 2 to 10 years, depending on the cuvees.
