Gault&Millau's review 2018

This cuvée comes from the rich 2011 vintage. Very ripe, with notes of yellow fruit, raisins and plum liqueur, the bubbles and mousse are fine, revealing a full, ample wine. With great vibrancy and length, this wine, vinified without sulfur, will delight lovers of mushroom-based dishes such as a fine veal chop casserole with chanterelle mushrooms.

Laurent Bénard

The estate is located in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, in a renowned village classified as a premier cru. Certified organic, Laurent Bénard and his wife have also opted for certification of their cellar practices since 2012. Soil tillage, no sulfur added at bottling, wood ageing and low dosage are daily practices in the quest for authentic champagnes. As an engineer, Laurent Bénard sees organic farming as a means to an end, and not an end in itself, in the service of producing champagnes that are currently highly sought-after. The house style tends towards subtle oxidative notes, making them remarkable table companions. Selective distribution in the on-trade.
