Gault&Millau's review 2025

The tenderness of the first aromas immediately evokes red berries, bursting with sunshine and sugar. Intense sweetness that makes you want to bite into a raspberry or pick a gooseberry. This sweetness is complemented by the sweetness of ripe orange and more floral notes (lemon blossom, Mexican orange). The palate is fresh and invigorating, carried by a pure, straightforward texture. The citrus fruits are well in place, and the mineral framework adds tension. Slightly saline, very salivating finish, with a pleasant, refreshing chalky feel.

Étienne Sandrin

Anne and Étienne Sandrin took over the family domaine in 2006, and from the moment they arrived, they had a very clear idea of what they wanted to achieve: champagnes that reflected their terroir as accurately as possible. Their signature cuvées come from a single plot and a single vintage. To achieve even greater accuracy in their wines, and true to their motto "Do it your way, and above all do it right!", the winemakers converted their operation to organic farming back in 2014, and the switch to biodynamic (Demeter certification) was made in 2018. Most of the wines come from pinot noir planted, depending on the plot, on limestone marl or clay soil, and are neither filtered nor dosed.
