Champagne Christophe Dechannes Tradition Brut NV

In the Aube department, the village of Les Riceys is a treasure trove of winemaking tradition, celebrated for its unique landscapes and the distinction of being the only village in France with three AOCs: Champagne, Rosé des Riceys, and Coteaux Champenois. Nestled in the Côte des Bar, this village boasts the largest Champagne vineyard area with 866 hectares of vines. It is in this exceptional terroir that Christophe Dechannes produces his wines, carrying on a family tradition passed down from father to son. His Champagne is crafted with respect for traditional methods on a small, human-scale estate, where he oversees every step from grape picking to marketing, ensuring the highest quality. Dechannes' Champagne embodies the region’s rich heritage, with its hillsides, houses, and cellars recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site since 2015. The Côte des Bar's unique clay-limestone soils and ideal climate are perfect for cultivating Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, the predominant varieties in his Champagne. With his meticulous attention to detail, Christophe Dechannes' small-batch production captures the essence of this storied terroir, offering a wine experience sure to delight even the most discerning palate.
