The estate and the wine |
|
|
Awarded 3 stars by the French wine guide RVF, Pascal Doquet is a go-to name for lovers of precise, vibrant Champagnes made from Chardonnay.
This small, 9-hectare estate based in Vertus cultivates some of Champagne’s finest terroirs organically—including prestigious Côte des Blancs crus like the Grand Cru Mesnil-sur-Oger, as well as the chalky slopes around Vitry-le-François.
Vinification is partly carried out in oak barrels, though never with new wood, and the dosage is always carefully controlled following extended ageing in the cellar. The result: honest, finely crafted Champagnes with long, saline, and characterful finishes. |

The Diapason Blanc de Blancs Extra-Brut Champagne Grand Cru reveals a broad, dense texture that’s been finely sculpted. Its vinous, mouthwatering structure promises graceful evolution over the next fifteen years. What vitality, what length! This cuvée is composed of 32% wines from the 2017 harvest and 68% from a perpetual reserve begun in 2012, which incorporates roughly half of the most recent vintage each year. A large portion of the wines are vinified in seasoned oak barrels, adding depth without overt oak influence. |
