As
soon as we have left the nice city of Epernay we arrive in the
‘Côte des Blancs’. This is the empire of Chardonnay, a unique
white grape from which we are making wines that are known for
their finesse, elegance and aromatic power. Vertus is a
beautiful city. With 564 Hectares in the 'Côte des Blancs' it
is the most important vineyard of the Marne. Every year in
September-October the grape harvesting is the place for
heart-warming meetings and friendships. Carole Doyard has her
vineyards (around 6 hectares) in the village of Vertus known
for its ‘premier Cru’. Four generations already have passed
their knowhow in order to assure the future. Since
1991 we respect still more the environment and the work of
men and women busy with the development of our champagne,
followed by Réseau
Magister.
Nature gave us a wonderful product that we appreciate this
way. Today Carole produces her wines with the same passion as
Carole’s great-grandfather Maurice, grandfather Jean and
father Philippe. Our champagne is produced from the Chardonnay
grapes. We vinify around 50 000 bottles yearly. Every
step in production and vinification is executed in a
traditional way.
