Eric Rodez is part of what is known as the Authors of Champagne. This committed Champagne grower is surrounded by his wife Martine and his son Mickael Rodez, the 10th generation of winegrowers on the splendid terroir of Ambonnay (Montagne de Reims), who joined him in 2014.
After an oenological journey around the world to discover foreign wines, Mickael takes over the management of the vineyard in this village classified Grand Cru. It was in Alsace that Eric Rodez honed his skills as a winemaker, today father and son Rodez seek perfection, natural balance and the alchemy of Man and vines on exceptional Champagne terroirs. After years of discovery and questioning (first vintage in 1984), Eric Rodez decided to convert to organic farming, before moving towards biodynamics in 2009, in order to progress towards increasingly environmentally friendly viticulture. Domaine Champagne Eric Rodez received in 2012 the High Environmental Value (HVE) certification and became the first certified French agricultural operation.
Champagne Eric Rodez produces authentic Grand Cru champagnes primarily made from Pinot Noir, which Champagne shares with Burgundy for the production of its red wines. True interpreters of their environment, Eric and Mickael Rodez work extensively by parcel with Champagne Lieux-Dits cuvées on Les Beurys and Les Genettes, produced notably on the 2010 and 2012 vintages. The Rodez family combines Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in champagne cuvées recognized worldwide (90% of Champagne Eric Rodez production is exported) such as the Champagne Eric Rodez Cuvées de Crayeres: Champagne "of body and spirit", the Champagne Eric Rodez Dosage Zéro cuvée as well as Grands Vintages, a meticulous blend of superb vintages (2010, 2009, 2008, 2006, 2005 and 2004).
The cuvées of Champagne Eric Rodez, predominantly vinified in oak barrels, will offer you power, texture, warmth and depth, carried by great finesse. You will appreciate the rosé champagne, and also the white champagnes Eric Rodez Empreinte de terroir, sometimes as Blanc de Blancs, sometimes as Blanc de Noirs (which can be found on the 2002 and 2003 vintages) and their vintage Champagne cuvées, such as the exceptional 2006 vintage.
