Description
AOC Champagne, made with a pas dosé method, produced by Geoffroy in the Champagne region of France. 0.75L bottle. A Blanc de Blancs that expresses the purity of Chardonnay through an expressive bouquet that releases aromas of apple sauce, enriched with notes of vanilla. A tribute to the Geoffroy family tradition, which has cultivated vines in Cumières, in the heart of the Marne Valley, since the 17th century. On the palate, the attack is refined with a fruity flavor and a beautifully fresh finish.

The few acres of vineyards that our ancestors cultivated and handed down from generation to generation provide the link to our champagnes.
At the beginning of the 1950s Roger Geoffroy and his wife Julienne decided to take the plunge into winemaking and produced their first bottles: the Roger Geoffroy brand was born. René Geoffroy, their son, who loved the land, soon succeeded his father. An owner-grower to his soul, he acquired new vines, and with the help of his wife Bernadette, they developed and promoted their brand.
At the end of the 1980s. Jean-Baptiste joined the family estate, perfecting his craft working side by side with his father and his father's cousin Pierrot. In 2008, Jean-Baptiste and his wife Karine decided to relocate both the winemaking and commercial operations of Champagne Geoffoy business to Ay, to a property built in the late 19th century.
