Champagne R. Pouillon & Fils 2020 'Les Chataigniers' Extra Brut

Les Châtaigniers is sourced from a single vineyard in the village of Festigny, on the left bank of the Marne Valley, where clay-rich soils provide an ideal home for Pinot Meunier. Long regarded as one of Champagne's most expressive varieties, Meunier delivers both depth and freshness from this distinctive terroir.

François farms the parcel organically with the same meticulous attention given to the rest of the estate, encouraging healthy soils and balanced vines that fully express their site. In the cellar, the wine is handled with minimal intervention to preserve its purity and sense of place. The result is a focused, textural Champagne that highlights the richness of Meunier while maintaining the energy, mineral character, and precision that define the estate's wines.
