" This cuvée remains a safe bet and a beautiful classic for lovers of refined, low-sulfur Champagne. It distills a few honeyed notes and a supple palate." (Le Guide RVF 2023) An undosed Champagne that is expressive and extremely refined!

About the estate:

Famous house in the Côte des Bar (Aube) founded in 1895. Émile Fleury was the first to graft Pinot Noir; Robert sold his first bottles in 1929 and Jean-Pierre was a pioneer of biodynamics in Champagne, converting his 15 hectares in 1989. Twenty years later, his three children joined the business: Morgane runs a wine cellar in Paris, Jean-Sébastien is in charge of winemaking, and Benoît looks after the vines.

About wine:

This cuvée remains a safe bet and a fine classic for lovers of refined, low-sulfur champagne. It distills a few honeyed notes and a supple palate.

About the estate:

A pioneer of biodynamic farming in Champagne since 1989, the Fleury family uses grapes from its own vineyards and purchases organic grapes to produce delicious champagnes dominated by Pinot Noir. Their Barséquanais vineyard is maturing and the viticulture methods used add extra flavor to the wines, some of which are aged in oak, some in cork (Boléro, extra-brut vintage) and some without sulfur for certain vintages. Unusual in the world of Champagne, this visionary house expresses the roundness and maturity of Aube Pinot in a delicious range. Jean-Sébastien Fleury has brilliantly taken up the torch from his father Jean-Pierre, a biodynamic winegrower respected by his peers.
