From a steep, south-facing slope in the Vallée de la Marne—where Chardonnay is rare—Les Valnons is a striking example of what happens when a grower like R. Pouillon pushes Blanc de Blancs beyond the expected. This 2017 release comes from a single lieu-dit in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, fermented in oak and bottled Extra-Brut to preserve every ounce of clarity and cut.

Where many Blanc de Blancs aim for weightlessness, Les Valnons offers something more architectural—tense and mineral, yes, but also textured and layered. The chalk speaks clearly, but so does the vintage: cool and focused, with a fine-boned elegance that lingers. This is Champagne for the cellar, or the table—more Meursault energy than aperitif fizz. Drink it alongside scallop crudo, aged Comté, or just let it unfold slowly in the glass.

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!
