R. Pouillon’s Solera Extra-Brut is Champagne for those who want to explore the deep end of the category. A perpetual reserve started in 1997 and refreshed through 2018, it’s a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay that ages in oak, evolves over decades, and bottles the soul of Pouillon’s Avize and Mareuil terroirs in a single, intensely expressive wine.

The result? A Champagne that feels layered like a fine Jura white or aged sherry—brioche, toasted hazelnuts, dried citrus peel, and a whisper of spice—balanced by the cool, stony acidity that only Champagne can deliver. There’s oxidative richness, yes, but also precision and freshness, thanks to the low dosage (Extra-Brut) and Pouillon’s detail-obsessed farming.

This is grower Champagne that drinks like a vinous time capsule—perfect for Champagne lovers looking to push into complex, food-friendly territory. Pair it with aged cheeses, roasted poultry, or deep conversation.

Wine Spectator

92 points

"An aromatic Champagne defined by rapierlike acidity, a backbone enmeshed with expressive flavors of steeped raspberry, whole grain toast, apple blossom and a touch of honey comb. It's fine and satinlike in texture; distinctive and almost vinous in style."

Founded in 1947 by Roger Pouillon, now stewarded by his son Fabrice who's converted to organic and biodynamic farming. Mareuil-sur-Aÿ Champagne with real structure and personality—you taste the chalk, the vintage, the intention. This is what thoughtful Champagne looks like.

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!
