Since 1785, a passion for wine and its cultivation has been transmitted from generation to generation and continues today to Yann, the ninth generation. The vineyards of Champagne Vadin-Plateau were formed over the generations, and have now reached seven hectares over seven villages, all chosen by the family of the wine makers for their characteristics: Aÿ, Pourcy, Hautvillers, Cumières, Damery, Venteuil, Château-Thierry. Exclusively on southern and southeastern slopes, the vineyard is composed of 44% Pinot Meunier, 39% Pinot Noir and 17% Chardonnay. Each tract was acquired based on its ability to carry the variety that the company wanted to use.

The addition of pinot blanc elevates the wine and provides a minerality that is akin to a ‘stony’ or ‘earthy’ sensation. After the nose settled down, the fruit profile started to show some nashi pear, yellow grapefruit and spice. The palate remained uber dry and mouth puckeringly good..\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Meticulous farming meets meticulous winemaking. Very much on the ripe side, with little oxidation, and just enough dosage to stop it from being hollow (2g\/l). Lots of zesty fruit aromas (cherry, white apricot, white raspberry) with a sprinkling of varietal spice from the PN (cinnamon dust, candied rhubarb and rose). Brioche-y autolysis notes are present, but ride behind the fruit. Likewise with the chalky minerality. Reminds me a lot of the Marie-Courtin cuvées that see some dosage.
