The three varieties are Pinot-Noir a red grape, Pinot-Meunier a red grape and Chardonnay a white (also known as a green) grape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Current regulation only allows champagne producers to make champagne with these three grapes, either as a blend, or 100% from a single grape variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Red wine colour is produced by crushing the Pinot-Noir or Pinot-Meunier grapes which produce a white extract, but when allowed to remain in contact with the skin for an extended period of time, turns the extract red.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Both these grape varieties can remain white coloured if the skins are separated soon after crushing. The Chardonnay grape extract retains a white colour or slightly green if the skins are allowed to sit in the extract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- 100% Chardonnay is referred to as Blanc de Blancs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- 100% of Pinot-Noir or Pinot-Meunier that is left as a white extract is known as Blanc de Noir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNow that you have some idea of your champagne, we invite you to explore what you can get on a budget of $100 or less.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Champagne Under $100 That We Offer\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are a number of ways you can beat your budget and still fit in that fine champagne you are hoping for.

- Expressive and complex wine made by ageing it to the sounds of music
- Brut Nature = no added sugar!
Enjoy this amazing Brut Nature from the Marne Valley, amde of 65% Pinot Meunier and 35% Chardonnay. With a dosage of 0g, this is a delicate, fine wine that would go amazingly well with oysters, sushi or shellfish. This is a lively, pure and frank symphony, as Palmyre, Michel’s great grandmother, was. A family story.
Base vintage is 2011.
About The House
The Michel Loriot range of champagnes bears the name champagne Apollonis. Found in the small village of Festigny, the Apollonis estate owns 7 hectares of vines comprising 20 or so separate plots planted for the most part with pinot meunier (80%), some chardonnay (18%) and a little pinot noir (2%). The estate has been awarded the high environmental value (HVE) certificate, the highest award recognizing respect and care for the land, the environment and its biodiversity.
Festigny has relatively chalky soils for the Vallee de la Marne and the village itself lies in the warm valley, fully exposed to the sun. Within this valley is a solitary hill upon which the best vineyards of the village are located. With its steep slopes and a crown of trees on top, it is almost reminiscent of the hill of Corton in burgundy.
The majority of this domaine’s vineyards are found surrounding this hill, planted on steep slopes in clay rich in marl and limestone. Only natural fertilizers are used to treat the vineyards (it’s been over a decade since Michel has eradicated all use of herbicides). Michel firmly believes that getting things right in the vineyard allows healthy grapes to be harvested, which enables minimal intervention in the winemaking process. Production is a mere 300 000 bottles a year.
