Description
This Champagne comes from the Les Couarres vineyard in Lieux-Dits, cultivated with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, a vineyard in the centre of the village, planted in 1982, where the clay brings a beautiful depth and fatness so that the mineral texture refines and reinforces the impression of freshness in the mouth.

In the 7th century, the winegrowers of the village of Merfy drew on the heritage of the Benedictine monks of Saint Thierry Abbey. Generation after generation, the Merfy vine-growers, together with the abbey, shaped the vine-growing landscapes of our hills, meticulously separating each plot according to its geological origins, soils, subsoils, etc. The names were later inscribed on village maps and became the 'lieu-dits', cultivating the vines that grow there today.
The family's wine-making tradition traces back to 1490, with Nicolas Taillet and Fiacre Taillet in 1540. In 1700, a second Fiacre Taillet, a learned winegrower, wrote his memoirs recounting his life and all the important events in the village, his family and his profession. The Chartogne-Taillet family continues this tradition and savoir-faire inherited from this winegrowing heritage. Read more
