Gault&Millau's review 2027

Aeration is welcome for this champagne made from the three king grape varieties. It reveals notes of white fruit, pear and quince, a touch of fruit paste and the tangy sweetness of lemon curd. On the palate, it's spicy! The ginger is at work, giving way to a dense, creamy texture and a juicy sensation of ripe melon very typical of Pinot Meunier. The finish is fine and the bubbles delicate, with that chalky hint of return. With a lemon meringue pie, it's in the bag!

Varicour

In March 2024, Séverine and Aymeric Couvreur changed the name of their champagne house located in Rilly-la-Montagne. Champagne Martial-Couvreur thus became Champagne Varicour, with one distinctive feature: the creation of two lines. The first, Varicour par Madame, features cuvées named Ravissante, Sémillante, Innocente, Charmante, Galante, and Palpitante. The second, Varicour Collection, features two cuvées sourced from the couple’s vineyards on the Montagne de Reims and in Courville in the Ardre Valley, with a blend of Pinot Meunier, Pinot Noir, and Chardonnay.
