THE BRAND
Pascal Doquet Champagnes are grown organically on a vineyard of 8.66 hectares on the magnificent terroirs of the Côte des Blancs (in grand cru in Mesnil-sur-Oger and in premier cru in Vertus, Bergères-les-Vertus and Mont Aimé) and in the Côtes du Perthois, in the Vitry-le-François sector. A winemaker since 1982, Pascal Doquet is a partner with his sisters. In 2004, he took over the entire Domaine and gave it a new dimension by starting its conversion to organic (fully certified since 2010). The work of this winemaker is very precise, he aims for the most complete expression of the different terroirs occupied by the plot. He vinifies part of his wines in old oak barrels. In order to maintain the balance of the wines and their personalities, all the vintages are either extra brut or brut nature. In addition, they are made without liqueur but with a moderate contribution of concentrated grape must, closer to the natural sweetness of the grape. Pascal Doquet's champagnes are explosions of freshness with a certain complexity, the balance between maturity and roundness is perfect with always this touch of minerality and a chalky finish that characterize the house. This great winemaker undoubtedly produces Blanc de Blancs among the most precise and respectful of the Côte des Blancs.
