J. Vignier
Champagne | Côte de Blancs | Cramant
Vignier’s holdings are now in the Grand Cru Villages of Cramant, Chouilly and Oiry, as well as some parcels in the Côte de Sézanne. Nathalie first worked as an insurance adjuster for wineries in Burgundy and Champagne and was called home to take over the estate by her father. She is slowly aligning the estate to her philosophy: higher ripeness, a return of oak to the cellar and no use of herbicides or pesticides. The Vignier family motto is “La bonté de l’esprit et la grandeur de courage,” which means “the goodness in spirit, and the courage to greatness.” There is a lot to look forward to from this grower in the future.
J. Vignier 2015 "Les Abbesses" Blanc de Blancs Brut
Pure Chardonnay, from a single Sézannais plot in the town of Vindey, a thousand-year-old wine village with the Latin etymological origin of "vinum dei", or "god wine". A unique site, grown on alluvium soil over deep chalk, this vineyard produces a self-possessed and deep champagne, marked by delicate aromas of fruits and wild flowers. 2015 marks the first vintage produced for this champagne.
