Our 2016 extra brut Blanc de noirs just won gold at the independent winemakers competition

We’re delighted to announce that our Blanc de Noirs Millésime 2016 Extra Brut has been awarded a Gold Medal at the prestigious Concours des Vignerons Indépendants.

This award, judged solely by fellow independent winemakers and experts, recognizes the daily care and quiet passion our family pours into every bottle. It also celebrates the outstanding quality of the 2016 vintage — a year that rewarded patience and precise work in the vineyard.

Grown in the Southern vallée de la Marne, where pinot meunier feels truly at home, this extra brut reveals elegant red fruit, subtle spice, and a refined structure that comes from long aging in our cellars. The result is a champagne that feels both generous and precise: fresh enough for aperitif, structured enough for the table, and balanced enough to enjoy anytime the moment feels right.

Since 1902 our family has stayed faithful to these ten hectares. Today the new generation continues that same artisan approach — working small, aging longer, and keeping the wine honest. No flashy tricks, just terroir that speaks clearly in the glass. When we need extra volume we rely on our trusted collective of independent growers from the south of the Aisne, always with the same standards.

This gold medal is more than a trophy on the wall. It’s proof that you can find real depth, finesse, and character without hunting for famous names or paying premium prices. It’s grower champagne the way it should be: confident, accessible, and made to be shared.

Perfect for a quiet celebration, a dinner with friends, or simply when you want something better than ordinary. One sip and you’ll taste the patience, the place, and the people behind it.
