Gault&Millau's review 2026

This wine seduces with its expressive nose of plum, black fruit, smoke and honey, complemented by notes of tobacco, wilted rose, licorice and cardamom. On the palate, with a soft attack, it reveals a pleasantly creamy texture and silky, present bubbles. There's a lovely juicy sensation with aromas of fresh strawberry, blackberry, raspberry, morello cherry and spices. Its fine tannins add chewiness and personality, culminating in a fleshy, cherry-like finish.

A. Lété

This Champagne estate is, above all, a family affair, with three generations united by a shared commitment. Spanning 9 hectares—including a clos (a rarity in Champagne) in the heart of the Marne Valley—the plots are generally located on the right bank and enjoy ideal exposure. They are planted with 50% Meunier, 30% Chardonnay, and 20% Pinot Noir. Only the finest first-press juices are used, and the dosage liqueurs are crafted according to a family recipe to ensure authenticity and excellence. Full-size bottles, half-bottles, and magnums are still riddled by hand.
