Gault&Millau's review
2025
89/100
Beneath its straw color, the wine shows a slight evolution, which seems quite normal for a 20-year-old vintage, with aromas of hazelnut and waxed wood. There are notes of ripe yellow fruit and dried apricot. On the palate, the creamy bubbles quickly fade, but the light dosage balances out with a fresh, flattering and comforting texture. Between pretty bitters and spices, the finish shows that this wine still has plenty to offer.

E. Rigollot
Claude Rigollot set up his business in 1970 near Bar-sur-Aube, with just a few ares of vines, but the family had been winemakers for five generations. He marketed his first bottles ten years later, in the 1980s. His son Emmanuel took over in 2009, after completing a BTS in technical sales at the Lycée Viticole d'Avize and a long internship in the United States. The estate has nearly 7 hectares of vines in Bergères and Baroville. Pinot noir is the predominant grape variety, complemented by 20% Chardonnay. You can visit the estate by appointment and taste the wines in a cathedral tasting room.
