Rated estate (2015 guide): 1*Star (A well-crafted, recommendable wine that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))

About the estate:

Since the 16th century, the Maillart family has been growing grapes on the northern slopes of the Montagne de Reims. Nicolas represents a generation that seeks to move forward by developing a range of champagnes with a stronger sense of identity—the very qualities that have made winemaker champagnes so successful.
