With the 2018 vintage, our vintage rose champagne is taking a new direction. Climate change and the successively drier and sunny summers have altered the profile of the Cumieres grapes. This change convinced us of the need to look for Pinot Noir grapes that would provide additional intensity and aromatic freshness... as well as adding more tannic structure due, in particular, to slower ripening... without losing the charming, juicy hallmark character of the "Riviere" vineyards' south facing slopes.
