“Éclats Rosé” Édition Speciale Extra Brut 2019/2020

Cyril Jeaunaux is the third generation of his family to grow grapes and converted to biodynamic farming in 2015. In the very south of the Côte des Blancs, on the Petit Morin river, lies the village of Tallus Les Prix. Here, Champagne is still truly rural. Nothing suggests luxury and jet-setting. Due to cool air from the surrounding hills, the vineyards in the valley are at risk of late frost. The Pinot Meunier, which dominates here, is best armed against this. A small part of the grapes comes from the Côte des Bar, where Cyril still cultivates one hectare of vineyards. The wines are aged in used barriques. Biological acid reduction is avoided if possible. Here, very individual and honest champagnes are created that combine animating acidity, minerality and drinking flow.
