Gault&Millau's review 2026

This champagne first seduces with a discreet nose of brioche, pear in syrup, small white flowers and a smoky hint of cracked matches. On the palate, the aromatic energy asserts itself: lemon, kumquat, butter, salted butter caramel, white fruits and a spicy touch of coriander. Light, creamy and balanced, it seduces with its smoothness and saline finish, revealing a versatile character, both refined and full of personality.

Locret-Lachaud

The Locret family has been growing grapes since the 18th century, but it was in 1920 that Gaston Locret and his wife, Marie-Louise Lachaud, decided to begin marketing their produce. Several generations have followed, and it is Charlotte, representing the fourth generation, who is continuing to develop the estate located in Hautvillers, the famous village where Dom Pérignon once lived. As both a grape picker and winemaker, she produces three cuvées made from the three main Champagne grape varieties planted on their 7-hectare vineyard. The estate welcomes visitors and also offers a vacation rental.
