Enter Vincent Cuillier's world of single-vineyard precision. Clos Forestier is a defined parcel of pure Pinot Noir, transformed into a Blanc de Noirs of surprising depth. Sandy soils impart that signature finesse—aromatic precision without heaviness. What distinguishes this from L'Arbre? Pinot Noir's structure and complexity. Where Meunier offers accessibility, Pinot brings gravitas. Three years aging in natural conditions, hand disgorged, zero dosage. The pale-hued wine in your glass belies its power: flavors of white peach, brioche, almond emerge with elegant authority. This is a single-parcel statement from a grower committed to letting terroir speak. For the Champagne lover seeking substance with subtlety.

"Vincent Cuillier's 2022 Brut Nature Blanc de Pinot Noir Clos Forestier is magnificent. Bright, punchy and explosive, the 2022 offers a compelling mix of vibrant fruit and saline, mineral-drenched energy. This feels so alive, so full of life. Sandy soils confer tons of aromatic presence to lift a core of Pinot fruit. Compelling. Bottled with no dosage. Disgorged: March 2025; multiple disgorgements throughout the year." —Antonio Galloni

More about Vincent Cuillier

Champagne is often framed as a region defined by tradition, but its most compelling energy today comes from growers who are quietly rethinking how vines, land, and wine relate to one another. Vincent Cuillier, one of the most exciting young growers on the scene, embodies this approach. He’s a farmer-first Champagne grower whose work we have been following for the last few years and who seems poised for a breakout moment.

Cuillier tends vines in the village of Pouillon, in the Massif de Saint-Thierry on the northern edge of the Montagne de Reims. Though still overseeing production for his family’s Champagne Cuillier label, since 2015 Vincent has been isolating what he considers his most unique and expressive parcels to bottle, in minuscule quantities, under his own name.

His guiding phrase, “fait à la main par nature” (“handmade by nature”), captures that philosophy precisely. Cuillier’s viticulture is rooted in regenerative farming, with full cover crops, low- to no-till practices, and homemade composts designed to increase soil life and organic matter. Most notably, he has embraced vitiforestry, the intentional integration of trees within the vineyards. Cuillier views the vine as one of agriculture’s most sensitive plants, thriving best when it exists as part of a complex, balanced ecosystem rather than being forced into a monoculture.

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!
