Champagne Damien-Buffet

Champagne Damien-Buffet

A family house of Sacy, a Premier Cru village of Champagne, rooted since the 15th century. Meunier in the spotlight, with Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. HVE and VDC approach. Nine cuvees, from Brut Expression to L'Elixir.

In Sacy, on the Champagne tourist route, the Damien-Buffet House is one of those addresses where continuity is not a slogan, but a reality. A family of winegrowers rooted since the 15th century, among the oldest in the village. Here, champagne is not made out of habit: it is built year after year, with a clear guiding idea, to respect the terroir and craft sincere cuvees.

Brut Expression

Blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Meunier

The house's flagship cuvee, from a blend of the three grapes with reserve wines. A brut focused on the balance between fruit, freshness and finesse.

Brut Meunier

100% Meunier

A 100% Meunier that claims its terroir: fleshier, fruitier, very indulgent. A champagne of conviviality, immediate and generous.

Brut Rose

Blended rose

A delicate, charming rose, in a crunchy and tangy register, with a tender palate and a fine mousse. At ease from the aperitif to dessert.

Demi-Sec

Blend, generous dosage

Based on the same blend as the Brut Expression, with a more generous dosage. A cuvee for the table, ideal with desserts, dry cakes and bold sweet-savoury pairings.

Brut Chardonnay

100% Chardonnay

A luminous white with notes of fruit, citrus and white flowers. A supple, round palate, perfect as an aperitif and formidably effective with seafood.

Brut Pinot Noir

100% Pinot Noir

A cuvee with a more assertive style, structured around Pinot Noir. Relief, elegance and depth define its profile.

Brut Prestige

Chardonnay-dominant, Pinot Noir and Meunier

An elegant cuvee dominated by Chardonnay, balanced by Pinot Noir and Meunier. Fine bubble, floral and summer-fruit notes, a lively and precise finish.

Brut Cuvee Collection

Blend, high proportion of reserve wines

A very aromatic champagne, marked by citrus, hazelnut and light toasted notes. The large contribution of reserve wines gives it depth and complexity.

L'Elixir

Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in equal parts, oak-barrel aged

The house's extraordinary cuvee, vinified and aged in oak barrels. A limited, numbered edition, designed for the moments you truly want to mark.
