Gault&Millau's review 2026

Lovely first nose of sweet almond, orange blossom and custard. The second nose offers fresher notes of granny smith, eucalyptus and tart harlequin candy. The palate is gourmand with honeyed aromas, topped by lively, refreshing tension. The bubbles are fine and dynamic, and the finish is salivating and juicy, revealing candied lemon, fresh orange and ginger.

Jérôme Blin

Based in Vincelles, in the Marne Valley on the border with the Aisne department, the Blin family has been winemakers since 1671. Pinot meunier is the majority grape variety on the estate, complemented by pinot noir and chardonnay. After assisting his father, Jérôme Blin created his own brand in 2010. He farms just under 3 hectares organically. Close to his terroir, he appreciates parcel-based micro-vinifications in barrels or jars. He works with indigenous yeasts, using as little intervention and sulfur as possible.
