Pierre and Sophie Larmandier are among the precursors of biodynamic wines. On their 16 ha vineyard in the south of the Côte des Blancs, they produce champagnes of exemplary naturalness and frankness. Very low (or even no) dosage because they are made from perfectly ripe grapes, their vintages express with precision the aromatic intensity and the delicacy of the greatest chardonnays of Champagne. In short, Larmandier-Bernier obtains with its chardonnays what Égly-Ouriet achieves with its pinots noirs.

This small estate, well known to the initiated, shines at the top of the Champagne hierarchy. Coming from a 31 ha vineyard, its cuvées render with finesse and purity the potential of their respective terroirs. Coming from 3 grands crus and 2 premiers crus, elaborated only from the first press juices, vinified in tuns, unfiltered and hardly dosed (2 gr/l for cuvée n°746), the 700 cuvées are great Champagne wines offering a remarkable ageing potential. The number corresponds to the vintage on the basis of which the cuvée is elaborated: 743 = 2015, 744 = 2016, 745 = 2017, 746 = 2018..., completed with some reserve wines.

Since January 2023, the Maison Jacquesson belongs to Mr. Pinault (Latour in Bordeaux, Clos de Tart in Burgundy, Château-Grillet in the Rhône, etc.).

A precise and meticulous worker, Francis Égly is at the top of the Champagne world. With his vineyards magnificently situated in grand cru (pinot noir and chardonnay in Ambonnay, Bouzy and Verzenay) and premier cru (in Vrigny and Bisseuil), he makes wines of prodigious vinosity, intensity and nobility of character, always on the razor's edge between the great ripeness of the grapes and a fine chalky minerality. All his vintages are vinified in wood, without malolactic fermentation. The critics are enthusiastic, such as M. Bettane, who says that "Égly-Ouriet sets the tone for all Champagne viticulture with vintages of staggering depth". Starting with the admirable flagship Brut Grand Cru, barely dosed (1g/l), slender and rich, with hints of iodine accompanying a fine bitterness.

Created in 2020, the new cuvée "Les Prémices" is a blend, in equal parts, of chardonnay, pinot meunier and pinot noir. A perfect entry-level wine, fresh and elegant.

Pol Roger is a medium-sized Champagne house (still family-run), but one of the small circle of the best Champagne Houses. It has long built its reputation by offering Champagnes of great breed, gourmet without being demonstrative, and always accompanied by refined aromatic precision.

Winston Churchill was clearly right when he made Pol Roger his favourite Champagne!

Maison Roederer has been regaining its lustre since 2010, under the guidance of its excellent cellar master, Mr Lecaillon, who is a firm believer in permaculture and agroforestry, and in 2018 converted half (120 ha) of the vineyard to organic farming. The House's style is now oriented towards straightforwardness and salinity, refined and refined wines.

The range begins with the cuvée Collection, a judiciously vinous champagne that is as much an aperitif as a meal thanks to the addition of reserve wines. Collection n°242 is built around the 2017 harvest, n°243 around 2018, and so on. Then come three vintage Brut, Rosé and Blanc de Blancs to conclude with Cristal, their world-famous flagship cuvée. Brut Nature is a new transversal cuvée, produced only in the best years, where purity (no dosage) and generosity (predominantly pinot noir) are the watchwords.
