R. Faivre La Mignonnerie Extra Brut, NV, from R. Faivre, comes from Belval-sous-Châtillon, on the clay-limestone soils of the Marne Valley. Aged on the lees, its Pinot Blanc reveals white flowers, white fruit and citrus. Lively, silky and mineral, with lively bubbles. Enjoy as an aperitif within 3 to 5 years.
A family house rooted in Belval-sous-Châtillon, R. Faivre has carried on a tradition of artisanal winemaking since 1953, guided by respect for the terroir and traditional methods.
- Terroir : Clay-limestone soils of the Marne Valley, where green clay lends the wines distinctive minerality and elegant tension.
- Winemaking : Parcel-by-parcel pressing, aging on the lees and minimal dosage preserve the purity of the fruit and the expression of this rare grape variety.
Tasting notes for Champagne R. Faivre La Mignonnerie Extra Brut
– Appearance : Pale gold with green highlights and fine, persistent bubbles, with a silky, airy appearance.
– On the nose : First, notes of white flowers (hawthorn, acacia), followed by white-fleshed fruit (Williams pear, vineyard peach) and candied citrus, all underscored by a saline, chalky touch characteristic of Belval’s terroir.
– On the palate : A lively, precise opening driven by taut acidity and chalky minerality; the creamy yet saline texture extends into a long, fresh finish with lingering citrus and a hint of sweet almond.
Serve at 9–10°C in a champagne flute or white wine glass to reveal its full complexity.
Non-vintage
This Champagne, blended from several years, embodies the consistency of the R. Faivre style: a balance of freshness and minerality without being swayed by vintage variations.
- Aging potential : Enjoy within 3 to 5 years of purchase, ideally 2 to 4 years after disgorgement, to appreciate its original vitality and purity.
