“A great champagne for fine dining! A limited-edition cuvée produced in small quantities”
“This is a pure Pinot Noir from a small section of a single vineyard in the village of Dizy, which displays great structure thanks to beautiful tannins and wonderfully ripe fruit. Yet it is dynamic, brilliant, and well-integrated. It is full-bodied and rich, yet fresh. This is a wine that pairs well with all kinds of dishes. No dosage. Drink now or keep.” (James Suckling 2024).

Wine rated (2025 guide) 93/100
Rated estate (2026 guide) 5*Stars (Exceptional producers, those representing the absolute pinnacle of quality in France and around the world)
About the estate:
Brought to the pinnacle of success by the Chiquet brothers, Laurent and Jean-Hervé, the house is the standard-bearer for champagne among discerning connoisseurs. Recently, François Pinault acquired a stake in the company. We highly recommend these great, deep, and elegant champagnes. Each new cuvée 700 (now 743) is a major creation and receives the utmost attention. It then ages under cork before reappearing as a DT (late disgorgement) version. The single-vineyard wines with the ultimate complexity come from Dizy (Corne-Bautray, Chardonnay), Aÿ (Vauzelle-Terme, Pinot Noir), and Avize (Champ-Caïn, Chardonnay), and are produced only when the terroir is at its peak. The 2009 vintages exhibit exemplary vibrant warmth and endless depth. Magnificent.

Rated estate (2026 guide) 3*Stars (These represent the pinnacle of French winemaking. The finest terroirs cultivated by the greatest winemakers. Tasting their wine is always a magical experience)
About the wine:
Terres Rouges 2015 is well-ripened and shows none of the typical characteristics of the vintage. Particularly full-bodied and opulent, the palate reveals a wine that is richer than it is elegant; while its generosity is evident, the wine lacks a bit of finesse.
About the estate:
A new chapter in the company’s history begins with the departure of brothers Laurent and Jean-Hervé Chiquet, who elevated this fine house to the highest echelons of the Champagne region. The Artémis Group has now taken the reins under the leadership of Jean Garandeau, but the teams remain unchanged: Yann Le Gall, cellar master, and Mathilde Perrier, vineyard manager, are still here to carry on the house’s legacy. The 700 cuvées account for the majority of production. What a long way we’ve come since the release of 728, from the 2000 vintage! The estate releases a late-disgorged cuvée every year; the first to be produced and released was 733, based on the 2005 vintage. Only a few single-vineyard cuvées are produced, depending on the quality of the vintage.

About the wine:
The Dizy-Terres Rouges Premier Cru Extra-Brut 2015 is bright, airy, and nicely spiced. It is a particularly floral, medium-bodied expression of Pinot Noir. Crushed flowers, dried herbs, spices, cedar, and tobacco give the 2015 a strong aromatic presence. Although somewhat light, the 2015 is very well defined and avoids the pronounced vegetal notes that plague so many wines from this vintage. Bottled without dosage. Disgorged: March 2023.
