Christophe Mignon’s ADN de Foudre Chardonnay is a rare Blanc de Blancs from his biodynamic plots in Festigny and Le Breuil, Vallée de la Marne. This 2019-based Brut Nature is 100% Chardonnay grown on clay-limestone soils and vinified with Mignon’s lunar-guided, low-intervention methods.

Fermented and aged 12 months in large oak foudres, the wine then spends nearly five years sur lie before disgorgement with zero dosage. This is Mignon’s most precise Chardonnay cuvée—textured, mineral, and sharply expressive of site.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 95

"The 2019 Brut Nature ADN de Foudre Chardonnay is the first Chardonnay I have tasted from Mignon. It is impressive, to say the least. A rush of citrus peel, white flowers, lemon confit and marzipan sprays out of the glass. There's a touch of reduction, but it is complementary and not a distraction. Time in the glass brings out the wine's intense vinosity. This is really a still Chardonnay with a bit of mousse. As the name states, this cuvée is fermented and raised in wood. I absolutely loved it. No dosage." -Antonio Galloni

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!
