ABOUT THIS WINE
This lovely Champagne offers aromas peach, pear, sweet almonds, pastry and white flowers. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with a layered, vinous core of fruit and a long, vibrant finish.
An organic wine composed from Cumières Premier Cru. No malolactic aging, fermented and aged in barrel with 132 months on the lees. Dosed with 4g/L. 53% Chardonnay, 32% Pinot Noir, 15% co-planted Pinot Noir, Meunier, Chardonnay, Petit Meslier, Arbanne
ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
The Geoffroy family have been winemakers since the seventeenth century and the property has stayed in the family for almost 400 years, uninterrupted. In addition to prime parcels in Cumières, the family has holdings in Damery, Hautvillers, and Dizy. Geoffroy’s vines average about 20 years of age, and the oldest are from 1926. Viticulture is described as lutte intégrée, or “integrated pest control”—it is heavily aimed at sustainability, eschewing all chemical weedkillers and employing methods such as the planting of cover crops, tilling of the soil and the encouraged habitation of predatory insects to combat vine pests.
