  • WINEMAKERS: Damien and Jérôme Labbé
  • FARMING: Practicing Biodynamic
  • VARIETIES: 65% Pinot Noir, 20% Pinot Meunier, 15% Chardonnay
  • TERROIR: Reims mountain, in the village of Chamery. Chalk subsoil, with clay and sand topsoil. Labbe & Fils now consists of 10ha of vines spread over 40 plots in 4 different villages. All of the plots are very close to the house, the furthest is only 5km away. This proximity does not mean homogeneity, in fact quite the opposite with each village having dramatically different exposures, soil types and personality. Ecueil is mostly sandy with silt and limestone, Sermiers is clay with limestone and Villers aux Nodes is more silty limestone. Their home village of Chamery is rather balanced but more and more calcareous as you go up the hills.
  • VINIFICATION/AGING: Two years lees' aging. Disgorged January 2022. Dosage: 6 g/L. 
  • TASTING NOTES: Bright citrus fruits and minerality well-balanced with notes of red fruits and rose petals.
