Gault&Millau's review 2027

Its complex nose reveals notes of lemon, pear, and a delicate hint of butter with cumin. On the palate, it captivates with its lively attack, round texture, and soothing bubbles. A dynamic finish, punctuated by hints of white flowers and caramel, prolongs the pleasure. This gourmet bottle immediately calls for grilled octopus.

Philippe Lancelot

The estate was founded in the 1970s by Philippe’s parents (Domaine Yves Lancelot Wanner). Having switched to biodynamic practices in 2012, followed by organic certification in 2014 and biodynamic certification in 2015, this purist winemaker is dedicated to bringing out the unique character of each cuvée. The vineyards, planted across 4 hectares, are located in the most beautiful villages: Cramant, Avize, Chouilly, Oiry, Épernay, and Aÿ. The harvested grapes are perfectly ripe, requiring virtually no dosage, and, since 2015, winemaking has been done without sulfur.
