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. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFestigny 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eProduction is a mere 300 000 bottles a year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMusic in champagne\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Loriot’s wines show a rich vinosity, expressing the characters of both the meunier grape and of this section of the Marne’s left bank. They tend to be substantial wines, as might be expected from these clay soils, yet they also demonstrate a lively finesse and prominent acidity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs of late 2012, Michel Loriot, an aficionado of classical music, has unveiled a new branding scheme for the estate, with labels reflecting a musical theme. Music plays a role in the aging of the wines as well—Loriot believes that its vibrations make a positive contribution to the texture and finesse of the wine as it ages, and he has installed speakers throughout his cellars.

Father and Vigneron Erick De Sousa has a Portuguese background and practices Biodynamic viticulture. The family runs just over 9 hectares, most of which in Avize but also in the Montagne de Reims and Ambonnay, also a small vineyard in the Marne Valley - Mardeuil. The main characteristics of De Sousa Champagne are; *'Vieilles Vignes' or old-vine viticulture. *The vineyards are ploughed traditionally by horse and some of the oldest vines go back to the early 1930's. *Full malolactic fermentation. *Extended lees ageing. *Ageing of reserve wines in barrel. Ericks' winemaking philosophy supports later ripening which allows the vines to benefit from the mineral-rich soils. This interaction enables the champagne to develop a palate profile that has abundance and purity and in our view, a remarkable length and finish compared to many other champagnes. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2021-05-18T15:07:00+10:00","created_at":"2021-05-18T14:08:45+10:00","vendor":"De Sousa","type":"Blanc de Blancs","tags":["Avize","Biodynamic","Blanc de blancs","Brut","Exclusive","Grand Cru","Grower","Kyri's Selection","Les Mesnil Sur Oger","Oger","Organic","Region: Avize","spo-default","spo-disabled","Taste: Almond","Taste: Biodynamic","Taste: Blanc de blancs","Taste: Chalk","Taste: Grand Cru","Taste: Herbal","Taste: Lemon Curd","Taste: Mineral","Taste: Nougat","Taste: Ripe Citrus","Year: NV"],"price":9500,"price_min":9500,"price_max":9500,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":39366168707181,"title":"Single","option1":"Single","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"DE-SOUSA_AVEC_BDB","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":{"id":28189443326061,"product_id":6576487333997,"position":1,"created_at":"2021-06-29T15:36:20+10:00","updated_at":"2021-07-02T12:34:43+10:00","alt":"De-Sousa-Avec-Le-Temps-Blanc-de-Blancs-Emperor-Champagne","width":540,"height":1080,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/DeSousa-_Avec-Le-Temps_-Blanc-de-Blancs-Emperor-Champagne.jpg?v=1625193283","variant_ids":[39366168707181]},"available":true,"name":"De Sousa 'Avec Le Temps' Blanc de Blancs - Single","public_title":"Single","options":["Single"],"price":9500,"weight":1500,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_quantity":114,"inventory_management":"shopify","inventory_policy":"deny","barcode":null,"featured_media":{"alt":"De-Sousa-Avec-Le-Temps-Blanc-de-Blancs-Emperor-Champagne","id":20458460086381,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.5,"height":1080,"width":540,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/DeSousa-_Avec-Le-Temps_-Blanc-de-Blancs-Emperor-Champagne.jpg?v=1624944980"}},"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/DeSousa-_Avec-Le-Temps_-Blanc-de-Blancs-Emperor-Champagne.jpg?v=1625193283"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/DeSousa-_Avec-Le-Temps_-Blanc-de-Blancs-Emperor-Champagne.jpg?v=1625193283","options":["Please select"],"media":[{"alt":"De-Sousa-Avec-Le-Temps-Blanc-de-Blancs-Emperor-Champagne","id":20458460086381,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.5,"height":1080,"width":540,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/DeSousa-_Avec-Le-Temps_-Blanc-de-Blancs-Emperor-Champagne.jpg?v=1624944980"},"aspect_ratio":0.5,"height":1080,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/DeSousa-_Avec-Le-Temps_-Blanc-de-Blancs-Emperor-Champagne.jpg?v=1624944980","width":540}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Fourth generation champagne producer based in Avize\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Made using 100% Grand cru fruit from Avize, Oger, Le Mesnil and Cramant \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Any fresh seafood to highlight the mineral dimension in this wine and it's citrus-driven texture.

The main characteristics of De Sousa Champagne are; *'Vieilles Vignes' or old-vine viticulture. *The vineyards are ploughed traditionally by horse and some of the oldest vines go back to the early 1930's. *Full malolactic fermentation. *Extended lees ageing. *Ageing of reserve wines in barrel. Ericks' winemaking philosophy supports later ripening which allows the vines to benefit from the mineral-rich soils.
