Champagne Brut Nature, Petraea IV, F. Boulard

The last bottling of this great Blanc de noirs champagne of assembly (of vintages) presents an intense nose of white flesh fruits, broom and spices. On the palate, it is full and rich, while retaining the tension of the terroir. A great blanc de noirs, which "erases" the effects of the vintage to concentrate on the terroir! A rarity and a great wine for gastronomy. Bettane & Desseauve: 93/100

Technique

Viticulture

Plot "Le Murtet". Siliceous-limestone soil of the Massif de Saint-Thierry. Certified organic cultivation. Petraea is made according to the Solera principle: each year, 50% of the last harvest is added to the maturing process. Thus, the final wine is composed of all the previous vintages, in decreasing proportion. This perpetual reserve was restarted in 2012 as an organic wine.

Oenology

Only "la cuvée" (the first juice from the first press) is used in the composition of this champagne. Spontaneous fermentation by natural indigenous yeasts. Vinification on fine lees in 25 hl tuns, with stirring. Malolactic fermentation carried out. Not dosed, not fined, not filtered.

Suggestions for accompaniment

Poularde truffled under the skin - Fricassee of morels or mousserons.

Domain

In 2009, Raymond Boulard's children decided to go their separate ways. Francis Boulard, his wife Jeanne and his daughter Delphine founded the estate that bears their names. At the origin of this creation, a guiding principle: for many years already, Francis Boulard had given an organic impulse to his production, with certain vines converted and certified. Francis and Delphine are good farmers and belong to a family of winegrowers for at least six generations. The oldest member of the family to be found to date was born during the French Revolution, in 1792. The estate's vineyards are located for the most part in Cormicy, to the north-west of Reims, in the Massif de Saint-Thierry, known as the "Little Mountain of Reims", on siliceous limestone soils. The vines are also present in Paradis (Hameau de Belval, in the Marne Valley), Cuchery, Cauroy-lès-Hermonville and Mailly-Champagne, a village classified as a Grand Cru of the Montagne de Reims. The vines are mainly exposed to the east/north-east, or even south in the Marne Valley. The orientation towards organic farming goes back several years: with the aim of producing wines with character and the most natural of all, a large part of the Cormicy vines have been worked since 2001 without weedkillers or synthetic products, and have been controlled in conversion since 2004 by Ecocert. They have been cultivated biodynamically since...
