Vincent CHARLOT – Biodynamic cultivation –

Champagne is a winemaking region based on a multitude of vineyards historically owned by large Champagne Houses that have practiced the art of blending for decades. Champagne Houses are credited with bringing this region to its international status of being the most celebratory wine in the world. It is only in recent years that we see the grower producer movement begin to draw worldwide attention. Bringing light to terroir driven parcels and single varietal bottling in Champagne.

With only four hectares – 33 parcels distributed in six communes -, Vincent Charlot has become a master of organic and biodynamic viticulture.

He is one of the very few in the area to grow and make his own biodynamic preparations and is a strong advocate that any disease in the vineyard can be managed homeopathically.

The Quiet Revelation of the Third Grape

Time, Terroir, and the Forgotten Grape: The Philosophy of Vincent Charlot The Quiet Revelation of the Third Grape Historically, Champagne has been defined by a traditional hierarchy. At the top sits Chardonnay, followed by Pinot Noir. These two varieties occupy the most highly classified vineyards and have long dominated international acclaim. For generations, however, the […]

WARIS-HUBERT Albescent Grand Cru Blanc de Blanc Extra-Brut 2019

Three Grand Cru villages of the Côte des Blancs — Avize, Cramant and Oger — meet in a single chardonnay, each lending its own voice to a wine that closes on a quiet, mentholated whisper distinct to the house.

WARIS-HUBERT Sophos

Named after the Greek word for "wise," this cuvée grows in a single Grand Cru plot in Avize called Les Maladries, where Chardonnay vines have stood for ninety to a hundred years. The 2016 harvest was marked by late frost and mildew pressure, cutting yields but concentrating what little fruit remained. Tilled by horse in the old way, the vineyard yields grapes that are fermented in oak and given years of quiet cellar time before release.

WARIS-HUBERT Blanche Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Extra-Brut Millésime 2017

Named by the owners of Waris-Hubert for their newborn daughter Blanche, this cuvée is built entirely from Chardonnay grown in Avize Grand Cru. After a long rest on its lees and a restrained dosage, it emerges less as an aperitif pour and more as a Champagne meant to hold its own at the table.

WARIS-HUBERT Succulente Rosé Premier Cru Brut

Succulente means lush, juicy — and this Waris-Hubert rosé lives up to its name by letting white grapes lead. Chardonnay from the chalk slopes of Grauves meets whole-cluster Pinot Noir from Bisseuil, two Premier Cru villages whose contrasting characters come together in a rosé built around red-fruit aromatics and a fine, fruity frame.

CHAMPAGNE

WARIS-HUBERT Estence Premier Cru Extra-Brut 2020

Estence takes its name from an Old French word meaning 'to sparkle' — and stands apart in the Waris-Hubert range as the house's only cuvée to bring Chardonnay and Pinot Noir together, grown on the Premier Cru slopes of Grauves.

CHAMPAGNE

WARIS-HUBERT Armorial

Named for the heraldic emblems that define a house's identity, Armorial channels the character of Waris-Hubert through a single village south of the Côte des Blancs — where sandy, sun-warmed soils coax a fuller, fruit-driven expression from Pinot Noir.

VINCENT CHARLOT Le Rubis de la Dune Rosé de Saignée Extra-Brut Bio Millésime 2014

A rosé de saignée shaped by a single plot called La Dune, where sand, flint and iron-veined clay meet old vines. Vincent Charlot describes its texture as 'en dentelle' — lace-like, quietly assertive and slow to unfold in the glass.

VINCENT CHARLOT Le Fruit de ma Passion Extra-Brut Millésime 2019

Two small plots in one Champagne village, three classic grape varieties, and a winemaker who lets each parcel find its own voice before they meet in the glass.

VINCENT CHARLOT Cuvée 1957 Blanc de Noirs Extra-Brut Millésime 2017

In 1957, a Champagne family planted a small plot of Pinot Meunier in Mardeuil. Three generations later, Vincent Charlot lets those old vines speak on their own terms — farming without machinery, fermenting without shortcuts, and giving old-vine Meunier the full frame of a single-varietal Blanc de Noirs.

VINCENT CHARLOT L’Or des Basses Ronces Blanc de Blanc Extra-Brut Bio Millésime 2015

Named for a patch of land once tangled with low brambles, this single-vineyard Chardonnay draws its character from old vines reaching through shallow topsoil into pure chalk below — a quiet expression of a year blessed with abundant sun.

VINCENT CHARLOT Cuvée Honoré Charlot Grand Cru Blanc de Noirs Millésime 2016

A grape-growing family once sold every harvest to the local cooperative. Then one grower broke from that history, bought his own press, and began coaxing something entirely his own from a single Grand Cru slope in Aÿ — the village long considered Pinot Noir's spiritual home in Champagne. The result drinks less like typical Champagne and more like a patiently aged white Burgundy.
