The vineyard
The plots of vines cultivated by Jean-Michel Rogier, in Serzy et Prin and Faverolles et Coemy, are nestled on the slopes of the Ardre valley.
Grape varieties
Pinot Meunier
This vigorous grape variety is particularly suited to more clay soils, such as those in the Marne Valley, and is better suited to more difficult climatic conditions for the vines. It gives supple and fruity wines which evolve a little faster over time and bring roundness to the assembly. (source : www.champagne.fr)
Pinot Noir
Perfect on limestone and fresh soils, it is the dominant grape of the Montagne de Reims and the Côte des Bar. The wines resulting from it are distinguished by aromas of red fruits and a marked structure. It is the grape variety that brings body and power to the assembly. (source : www.champagne.fr)
