Champagne Doyard
Champagne Doyard is based in Vertus on the Côte des Blancs and is led by Yannick Doyard. The maison sources grapes from Grand Cru sites of the Côte des Blancs: Avize, Le Mesnil, Cramant and Oger.
Vignoble & Soil
The grapes for Doyard come from four Grand Cru villages: Avize, Le Mesnil, Cramant and Oger — all first-rate Chardonnay terroirs on the Côte des Blancs. For the Cuvée Révolution, only vines over 40 years old are used.
Vinification
Doyard works with split vinification for the Révolution Blanc de Blancs: 50% of the wines age in used Burgundy barrels, the other half in stainless steel tanks. Around 20% of the cuvée undergoes malolactic fermentation. The dosage is 0 g/l — Brut Nature.
