Gault&Millau's review 2023

A Champagne hillside still marked by the woodiness of its ageing. The wine as a whole seems quite young, but you can sense the winemaker's skill and his desire to offer straightforward, unpretentious wines that sometimes destabilize us. We'll need to wait a few years for the chalky texture to integrate, and the patina of time will allow us to match it with poultry in cream sauce.

Aurélien Lurquin

Aurélien Lurquin is one of the up-and-coming young generation in Champagne. A member of the Des pieds et des vins association (along with other winemakers featured in this guide, such as Guillaume Sergent, Barrat-Masson, Barbichon...), which aims to raise the profile of terroir-based champagnes, Aurélien now produces just a few thousand bottles a year of his assertive, beautiful style. For him, making wine means "using all five of my senses to discover the new juice, while allowing the twelve months that forged its identity to express themselves as purely as possible". A domaine that was still confidential just a few years ago, and whose cuvées now fetch stratospheric prices.
