Gault&Millau's review 2026

With a slight evolution, the nose offers notes of walnut, toasted apple, marzipan and curry. The style is ripe and sunny. However, there's a slight tension on the palate and a little tannic structure that supports the nutty sensation. Muscular and serious. The finish is short and marked by a few pleasant bitters and hints of nutmeg.

Louis Dousset

A winemaker since 1844 with Léopold Dousset, it was in 1976 that Louis Dousset created the champagne house that bears his name. Based in Verzenay, a Grand Cru village on the northern slopes of the Montagne de Reims, Jean-Roch Floquet, Louis' grandson, cultivates 8 hectares of vines planted exclusively with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. He practises integrated viticulture, combining respect for the terroir, reduced inputs and innovative techniques (biodynamics, in-house yeast, gravity-fed working, etc.). The vineyard has been certified organic since 2024.
