Champagne Robert-Allait
Champagne Robert-Allait is a Récoltant-Manipulant from Villers-sous-Châtillon in the Vallée de la Marne. Led by Stéphanie Poussin-Robert in the 5th generation. The maison has been double-certified since 2015 — HVE and VDC — and farms its vines organically with a clear focus on biodiversity.
Vignoble & Soil
Robert-Allait farms vineyard plots in Villers-sous-Châtillon and Reuil. The parcel Le Mont de Reuil plays a central role in the portfolio — here stand old Meunier vines from 1923, which have been bottled as a vintage single vineyard since 2016.
Viticulture & Sustainability
The family keeps beehives in the vineyard and produces Miel du Vignoble — honey as part of the terroir concept. The organic farming follows the principle of promoting biodiversity. The maison received HVE and VDC certifications in 2015.
Vinification
Robert-Allait ferments with temperature control in stainless steel tanks and ages part of the cuvées in wood barrels — such as Le Mont de Reuil or the Solera lines, where 40% age in barrique. Malolactic fermentation is consistently blocked to preserve citrusy freshness and structure. Since 2017 the maison has used Solera aging — Réserve perpétuelle for the cuvées Solera RP-R (Chardonnay-dominated) and Solera RP-B (Chardonnay-Pinot Noir). The dosage ranges between 0 and 8 g/l — no Demi-Sec in the program.
