Discover the grape variety: Melon-Queue-Rouge
Lively, refreshing dry whites with a pale golden robe and green hints, a lean palate and preserved acidity, with signature aromas of citrus (lemon), white flowers, white-fleshed fruits (pear) and Loire saline iodine notes. A profile identical to classic Muscadet. Preserved for its heritage value in a few parcels in the Pays Nantais. A reddish-stemmed mutation of Melon de Bourgogne, native French white grape.

The wine region of Champagne
World benchmark sparkling wines: fine bubbles, citrusy tension, notes of brioche, toasted almond, white flowers and white-fleshed fruits after ageing on lees. Three grapes blended or solo: fleshy Pinot Noir (38%), fruity Meunier (33%), chiselled Chardonnay (28%). From straight Blanc de Blancs to vinous Blanc de Noirs, from non-vintage Brut to age-worthy Millésimé. AOC since 1927, 34,300 ha on chalk, 17 Grands Crus and 44 Premiers Crus.
The word of the wine: Rebêche (champagne)
Must obtained in excess of the 2 550 litres authorised for a weight of 4 000 kilos of grapes. The first 2 050 litres constitute the cuvée and the next 500 litres the taille. The rebêche represents 1 to 3 % of the total volume and must be distilled or used to make ratafia.
