This wine is made from 45% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay, and 20% Pinot Meunier. It translates literally to "the key of the seven acres." Enjoy it with chicken or pork katsu over rice and topped with a fresh pasture-raised egg. Laurent and Michelle Bénard-Pitois farm organically in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ and really make delicious, full, textured expressions of Champagne. This one has notes of white peach, lemon curd, toasted bread, and a long minerally finish.

Details

From our Importer: The Bénard-Pitois family began their Champagne adventure in 1878 and have been improving the cultivation of the soil and the vine ever since.

Michelle and Laurent Bénard-Pitois, third generation of wine farmers, considered organic farming in the 1990's and carried out the first tests with ECOCERT (international certification) on one hectare of land in 1995. In 2009 the conversion took off and has reached 2.5 hectares cultivated according to the AB specifications.

Since 2012, the wine has been organically certified.

Traditional plowing makes the vine root as deep as possible giving access to nutrients. This exchange between the vine and soil makes the grapes richer and adds a delicious balance to the wine.

A natural and static settling allows the wine to maintain a maximum of natural yeast. No sulphites are added and the wines are matured in oak barrels.
