Georges Laval
Managed by Vincent Laval, the vineyard is located in Cumières, 5 km from Épernay on the right bank of the Marne, a Premier Cru terroir. Organic since 1971, the vines and soils are meticulously tended. Since 2010, 40% of the vineyard has been ploughed with a horse, and the three Champagne grape varieties, most of which come from old vines, give the best of themselves. Indigenous yeasts, no chaptalization, long ageing periods and low doses of sulfur all contribute to the quality of our wines. Laval champagnes are deliciously sapid, and generally more racy than powerful.
Gault&Millau's review
2021
96/100
An exceptional winemaker needs an exceptional commentary: how can we produce, from a 1er cru parcel, a nectar from the 2015 harvest alone, which simultaneously combines a fine nose, aromatic purity, length on the palate, vibratory intensity, an explosion of fruit, creamy deliciousness, tension, richness and power? In a word: a delight! Bravo! Drink it for itself and share it with friends in search of new sensations.
