Jeaunaux-Robin is a small, family-run estate located in the Vallée du Petit Morin, south of the Côte des Blancs. Known for their meticulous farming and artisanal craftsmanship, the domaine produces expressive Champagnes that highlight the unique terroir of this lesser-known subregion.
- WINEMAKER: Cyril Jeaunaux
- FARMING: Certified Organic; practicing Biodynamic
- VARIETY: Primarily Pinot Meunier with a small percentage of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay
- TERROIR: Sourced from the clay-limestone soils of the Vallée du Petit Morin, with a focus on parcels near the village of Talus-Saint-Prix. The cool climate and distinctive terroir contribute to the wine's freshness and complexity.
- VINIFICATION: Produced using the saignée method, where the juice is bled off the skins after a brief maceration for color and flavor extraction. Fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged on lees for added texture.
- AGING: Aged on lees for 24+ months before disgorgement, with a low dosage of 4-5g/L to preserve its natural vibrancy.
- TASTING NOTES: Aromas of wild strawberries, red currants, and rose petals are layered with subtle notes of orange zest and chalky minerality. The palate is lively and precise, with fine bubbles and a long, refreshing finish.
- FOOD PAIRINGS: Perfect with smoked salmon, duck confit, or berry-based desserts like raspberry tarts.
- SCORES: 94 points – Wine Advocate; 93 points – Vinous.
