Geoffroy Expression Brut

Aromas of crushed chalk, peaches and minerals with hints of crushed stone fruit follow through to a full body with layers of fruit, fine phenolics and fresh acidity. Polished and creamy texture.

The roots of the Geoffroy family date back to the 17th century. At the beginning of the 1950s Roger Geoffroy and his wife Julienne decided to take the plunge into winemaking and produced their first bottles: the Roger Geoffroy brand was born. René Geoffroy, their son who loved the land, soon succeeded his father, who died suddenly and too young. The next in the line of succession, Jean-Baptiste, perfected his wine making ability with a helping hand from his father. He relocated the family and the business to the village of Aÿ in 2008. Continuing the long family tradition, the next chapter in the family's work will be written by their five daughters - Margaux, Sacha, Rosalie, Colombine and Azalée - the successors of the third generation. This new generation of winemakers is growing up inspired by new prospects, new ideas and precious experience.
