Gault&Millau's review 2027

A charming nose with notes of lily of the valley, raspberry, and cherry pit, along with hints of the sea and wild berries. On the palate, it captivates with its rich, rounded character—a Meunier at heart, yet as elegant as a Chardonnay. Fine, persistent bubbles and a chalky finish with hints of lemon zest, cocoa, and bitter hazelnut notes create a sublime harmony. Superb with a cheese platter.

Dérot-Delugny

A family-owned winery located in Crouttes-sur-Marne, in the Marne Valley, founded in 1929 by Philippe Dérot and Yvonne Delugny. Now run by the fourth generation, Laurent and Claire Dérot, the estate cultivates approximately 10 hectares of vineyards, primarily Meunier, along with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and a small amount of Pinot Gris. This estate practices certified sustainable viticulture, and its philosophy—known as “The D Theory”—is based on constantly adapting to the terroir and the wine’s evolution.
