Description

The Geoffroy family have been winemakers since the seventeenth century and the property has stayed in the family for almost 400 years, uninterrupted. In addition to prime parcels in Cumieres, the family has holdings in Damery, Hautvillers, and Dizy. They aim for the highest possible quality and ferment the wines in oak barrels for their Cuvee Selectionnee [now called Cuvee Empreinte] and Brut Prestige [now called Cuvee Volupte]. The wines don't go through malolactic fermentation, which gives them the nerve and aging potential that most Cumieres Champagnes lack

Champagne

Champagne, located in northeastern France, is famous for its sparkling wines made primarily from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier. The region’s cool climate and chalky soils contribute to the high acidity and minerality of its wines. The unique production method, known as Méthode Champenoise, involves a secondary fermentation in the bottle, creating its signature bubbles. This labor-intensive process, combined with the region’s strict regulations, leads to the quality and consistency of Champagne. The wines range from bone-dry to sweet, with flavors of green apple, citrus, and brioche. Champagne’s versatility makes it perfect for celebrations and food pairings, from oysters to fried chicken.
