Gault&Millau's review 2020

A topaz color with brown highlights heralds maturity. The nose is powerful, revealing an integrated mutage. Aromas of roasted fresh fruit, currants, honeyed plums and candied exotic fruit bring out the greediness. The palate is rich and homogeneous, with a sweetness of fruits in alcohol, macerated raisins and gingerbread. Try with tarte Tatin or semi-cooked duck foie gras with fig chutney.

Discover the winery

Lepreux-Penet

Louis-Gilbert Penet became a harvester and handler in Verzy following the 1929 crisis, investing in cellars dug into the chalk at a depth of 18 meters. His son Jean-Marie succeeded him, creating the brand. It is the union of his eldest daughter Florence and Jean-Paul Lepreux that symbolizes the current entity. The vineyard extends over some 8 hectares on the Montagne de Reims. Here, they are concerned with the microbial life of the soils, with a desire to combine modern production tools with traditional methods. Since 2017, the winery has been experimenting with amphora vinification.
