Benoit Lahaye is a farmer first and a winemaker second. Since taking over his family’s domaine in 1993, he has moved the viticulture from being pesticide-free to certified organic and then to biodynamic certification. This is far from an easy transition, as Champagne’s extreme northern climate can make biodynamic viticulture very difficult. In fact, certified organic vineyards only represent around 1% of total land.
100% Biodynamic Pinot Noir from nearly 50-year-old vines in the ‘Les Juliennes’ vineyard, on the terres blanches in Bouzy. Mineral, tart red fruit, herbal lift, Pinosity in the mid-palate and gorgeous rhubarb notes with a balancing fresh acidity to bring it home. Outstanding Rosé Champagne.
