“Estate created by my parents in the mid-1970s, each inheriting vines around the village, namely Cramant, Avize, Chouilly and Oiry, as well as Epernay and Ay.
Traditional viticulture and first trials in organic cultivation in 2010. Biodynamic practices started in 2012 on all the plots. We make every effort to develop as cleanly as possible and; to let the finest roots express its terroir, mechanical work has been carried out only with a chaser since 2016. "
"My idea is to apprehend and bring out the DNA of each vintage as best as possible and to create there, as I wish, my imagination, vintage after harvest, vintages, each with its own identity, among other vintages. Purity, singularity and why not 'originality', are my dearest wishes, hence the idea 'plots and favorites'. Each dressing illustrates in my own way my feelings with wine. "
“On this side, collaboration since the 2009 harvest with Hervé Jestin; otpimal maturity of the grapes, no chaptalisation, vinification with little sulfur if not without since the 2015 vintage. Light, verticality, but also shine, joy, fulfillment are our themes and research. Natural balance of wines from their release in the cellar does not necessarily require dosage. "
