Six-plus years on the lees, almost no dosage and Meunier in the lead: this is grower vintage Champagne made with a patience you usually pay much more for. Jérôme Dehours built the 2018 from just two of his parcels. It's 74% Meunier from Le Patis, a hilltop site of clay over limestone and one of the estate's highest, and 26% Pinot Noir from Les Grèves. He then left it 76 months in bottle. His other cuvées are blended to a set house style, but the vintage wine is meant to capture a single harvest, and Jérôme sums up 2018 as "wealth & precision." Dosage is only 1.1 grams per litre, so despite the "Brut" in our title, this is really extra-brut. Jérôme was just 21 when his father Robert died suddenly in 1987. Today he farms 42 vineyards on the south side of the Marne, and he has steadily kept more of the fruit for his own bottles. He now sells only a third of his grapes to négociants, down from half in 2007. A vintage Meunier this serious is exactly why we keep an eye on growers.

More about Dehours et Fils

Four generations of Dehours winemakers working in Vallée de la Marne, now with Jérôme Dehours in charge. Fourteen hectares split across 42 different parcels in Mareuil-le-Port, Oeuilly, and Troissy, each with different sun-exposure, soil, vines, height, age. This terroir complexity shows in the glass immediately. These Champagnes taste like the work of someone who knows every corner of their land. Not house style. Vineyard expression.

Flatiron's Take

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Roast chicken with morel cream sauce; seared scallops with brown butter; warm gougères; aged Comté; pork rillettes on toasted country bread; mushroom risotto.

Tasting Profile

Expect the rich, fruit-forward side of Champagne that Meunier brings: ripe apple, red berries and a little stone fruit, layered with the brioche, toasted nut and savoury notes that long ageing on the lees typically gives. With almost no dosage, it should finish bone-dry and precise, with fine bubbles and lively acidity keeping the generous, vinous palate in line.

Champagne

Champagne boasts some of the world’s greatest luxury brands with Krug, Cristal and, of course, Dom Perignon. But it’s also home to hundreds of small dynamic producers—farmers who grow their own grapes (often organically) and make (often with natural methods) tiny amounts of pure and absolutely delicious wine that reflect the individual personalities of their villages and terroirs. Toast with these wines, for sure. But also treat them like the great wines they are: taste, drink, explore!
