Rémi Leroy's philosophy—"more than Champagne, Champagne wine"—captures his commitment to making vinous, terroir-driven sparkling wine in the Côte des Bar. Trained as an oenologist in Bordeaux, Rémi returned to his family's holdings in Meurville to vinify roughly a third of their roughly nine-hectare estate under his own name, while the rest continues to supply larger houses. This Blanc de Blancs comes from old-vine Chardonnay selected from massal plantings, pressed gently by gravity, fermented with indigenous yeasts in small steel tanks and Burgundy oak, and bottled without fining or filtration. The Extra-Brut dosage—just three grams per liter—lets the wine's mineral purity and natural acidity speak for themselves. The 2020 vintage, harvested unprecedentedly early in mid-August, produced Champagnes of compelling ripeness balanced by fresh chalk-driven acidity. A bone-dry, mineral-driven expression ideal for oysters and raw seafood.

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!
