More about Champagne

Uniqueness and craftsmanship

Grower Champagne, or "Récoltant-Manipulant" (RM) as it is known in France, embodies the essence of Champagne in its purest form. These champagnes are made exclusively from grapes grown and processed by the winemaker himself. It is this complete control over the entire production process, from the vineyard to the bottle, that makes grower champagnes so unique.

The new generation of "vignerons" in Champagne is revitalising old techniques and bringing a breath of fresh air to Champagne production. They are the harbingers of a flavour revolution that is shaking up a champagne that has sometimes been homogenised by commercial blends. Each grower Champagne is unique, expressing the personality of the terroir and the winemaker.

The uniqueness of these champagnes lies not only in their production, but also in their limited production. While large champagne houses produce millions of bottles per year, the annual production of a winegrower is limited by law to 300,000 bottles, with most being significantly less. This exclusivity makes vintner champagnes coveted objects for connoisseurs and enthusiasts.

Another aspect that characterises vintner champagnes is the excellent price-performance ratio. As the winegrowers process their own grapes and do less marketing, they can offer high-quality champagne at competitive prices. As a result, there has been a clear trend in Germany in recent years towards higher quality and more premium champagne.

The biodynamic and natural vintner champagnes are particularly noteworthy. These wines not only epitomise the highest quality, but also a deep understanding of ecological relationships. Pioneers such as the Fleury winegrowing family show that organic champagnes can be true works of culinary art.

The variety of vintner champagnes is impressive. From luscious to fruity to delicate or salty - the range of flavours is enormous. Each winemaker brings his own philosophy and style to the bottle. Nicolas Maillart, for example, creates intense and expressive cuvées with a characteristic touch of finesse that express the potential of the terroirs premier and grands crus.

An experience for connoisseurs

For the champagne enthusiast, grower champagne offers the opportunity to experience the diversity and uniqueness of Champagne in its purest form. It is like "drinking the stars", as the legendary Dom Pérignon is said to have once described it. Each bottle tells the story of a terroir, a vintage and a passionate winemaker.

At a time when authenticity and craftsmanship are increasingly valued, grower champagnes represent the avant-garde of Champagne. They are more than just sparkling wine - they are a philosophy in a bottle that captures and preserves the soul of Champagne.
