2018 Les Ursules Blanc de Noirs, Roses de Jeanne, Cédric Bouchard
Cédric Bouchard has enjoying a meteoric rise in fame and demand. His have fast become some of the hardest to find Champagnes. He had started his career as a sommelier in Paris, but in 2000 decided to return home to the family domaine in Celles-sur-Ource in the Côte des Bar, where he brought his huge knowledge of world wine styles to bear on his own thoughtful production. His way of making wines often leans more towards Burgundy than Champagne. His philosophy is: single vineyard, single variety. And in each of his cuvées he seems to transcend both, creating something truly special. He has some of the lowest yields in all of Champagne, and practices ageing in tank, using low pressure, and zero dosage.
