Vilmart

Laurent Champs or monsieur Vilmart, a talented young man who is emerging as one of the most brilliant stars of Champagne, certainly placing himself among the best producers in the region, meaning not only the absolute quality, but also the constancy of this. The Vilmartrisale tradition from 1890 and the 11 hectares of vineyards, although located in the northern part of the mountains, are predominantly planted in Chardonnay. In addition, these vineyards are classified as Premier Cru but, thanks to the enhancement of older plants and a workmanship to say the least excellent because of the skillful hand of Laurent, then its care in the vineyard and its meticulousness in the vinification phase, the final result is of the highest level. Always, as evidenced by even minor or other years as bad as 2001. In addition, fermentations take place in foudre of 2nd and 3rd passage depending on the grapes, where then the wines remain 8-10 mesicon batonnage, the malolactic is not never carried out, in contrast with the tradition that it would like to do with the fermentations in wood, but in the end the result in the bottle gives credit to Laurent.
