Michel Laval Non Dosé Le Secret de Jules 2013, from the clay-limestone slopes of Boursault, is a champagne with no added sugar (0 g/l). A blend of 70% Pinot Meunier and 30% Chardonnay, it spends 8 years on the lees in barrels. Honey and brioche notes lead to a lively, mineral palate. Pair with seafood or duck breast. Enjoy by 2030.
A family estate rooted in Boursault, in the Vallée de la Marne, where five generations of winegrowers have carried on traditional craftsmanship since 1870.
- Terroir: Clay-limestone soils of the Vallée de la Marne, a unique microclimate where Pinot Meunier reveals all its finesse.
- Winemaking: Traditional methods, extended aging on the lees and spontaneous fermentation produce champagnes with character, precision and vibrancy.

On the nose – Fresh notes of candied citrus zest give way to deeper aromas of acacia honey, roasted hazelnut and golden brioche, lifted by a saline, chalky touch.
On the palate – A lively, taut opening brings elegant acidity together with chalky minerality, unfolding into a long, harmonious finish of tangy citrus and toasted nuances.
Serve between 8 and 10 °C in a champagne flute or white wine glass to appreciate its full complexity.
