2012 in Trigny was characterized by dry and warm weather, ensuring the ripeness of the grapes. The Pinot Noir grapes were harvested from sandy and clay-limestone slopes. The wine was aged for a long time in steel tanks, and the aging on the lees lasted 12 years, giving it an expressive aroma and weight. The aroma is dominated by notes of ripe red berries, strawberries, raspberries and plums. The taste is fresh, with a subtle hint of minerality and soft spices.

About the manufacturer

The Maxime Blin family champagne house with authentic roots is located in the town of Trigny, just 10 km from Reims. The champagne house brings together the third generation of winegrowers who nurture the family land with love and respect. Their 12 hectares of vineyards “mono-cru” Côteaux de Trigny are endowed with excellent south-eastern exposure and sandy-drained soil, which promotes expressive aromas and lightness in the taste of champagne. The grapes are grown organically (certified in 2021), and each stage, from gentle pressing to fermentation, long-term aging, is carried out by hand and with care, revealing the softness and elegance of the terroir.
The family views the vineyards as a living organism, where each part is important for the overall balance. Their philosophy is close to natural agriculture, soil health, plant diversity and animal friendliness are an integral part of their daily lives. Chickens on the farm here are a natural part of sustainable living, reminding us that champagne is not born in a laboratory, but on a real farm. Maxime Blin creates its identity precisely as a family, which is first and foremost farmers, and only then champagne producers, transmitting this earthy and warm philosophy in every glass.
