If you look at a bottle of Champagne, there are 2 denominations that you need to remember. N.M. (meaning Negociant-Manipulant) will appear on the labels of the large champagne houses previously mentioned. This simply means these producers purchase all the fruit they use for their bottlings. An easy way for you to remember this the next time you are looking at the label is N.M. stands for “Not Mine”. R.M. (meaning Recoltant-Manipulant) means the producer of the Champagne owns the vineyard (or rows in a vineyard) from which the grapes are sourced, or in other words, estate fruit. An easy way to remember this is R.M. stands for “Really Mine”. There are over 19,000 growers in the region, they own approximately 88% of the vineyards in Champagne. 5,000 of these Growers produce their own wine, yet approximately 5% of the Champagne imported into the U.S. is Grower champagne.

Our Brut Rosé Grand Cru is the result of a delicious blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and the famous Bouzy. Treat yourself to its raspberry-hued robe, its strawberry and blackberry bouquet.

Produced from our vineyards in Bouzy, 100% Grand Cru. 43% Pinot noir, 40% Chardonnay and 17% Bouzy Rouge (AOP Coteaux Champenois), no malolactic fermentation

Aromas of red berries, baked red apples and rose petals. This Champagne is juicy and mouthfilling with a creamy persistent mousse, and an elegant, mineral-laced finish.
As an aperitif or with chocolate desserts, fresh strawberry or cherry pie.
