Gault&Millau's review 2023

This cuvée develops a lovely nose with aromas of turmeric, paprika and yellow flowers, all with a very airy side. Barely dosed, this wine, which spent two winters in the cellar before bottling, is both enveloping and round, with lovely bitters. A touch of wood on the finish dries it out a little. For its powdery side, open it at table with a well-roasted white pudding and apple trio.

On the cool soils of the Marne Valley, David and Jessica Faivre craft single-vineyard wines to reveal the richness of their terroir. Their 6.2 hectares of vineyards, planted primarily with Pinot Meunier—along with a few dozen ares of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Blanc—have been herbicide-free since 2005. In line with this commitment to minimizing their environmental impact, winemaking is carried out with minimal inputs, allowing the wines from this family-owned estate to develop their signature creamy texture.
