When not occupied ‘tasting the stars’ or mythologising the genesis of what was to become the most famous sparkling wine in the world, Dom Pérignon, our tipsy friend from the monastery of Hautvillers, would probably have enjoyed imbibing the local still wine.
The subsequent evolution of Champagne into the most protected and celebrated fizz in the world is well documented. But what happened to the local plonk? Not much it seems. Champagne’s very raison d’être was built on the premise of defying a marginal climate and adding, whenever possible, carbon dioxide and sugar to the reedy still wine.

Why do it?
Commercially and intellectually there seemed very little point in reawakening a category which was not especially auspicious in any sense – one or two honourable exceptions, such as Bollinger’s Vieilles Vignes Françaises, aside.
The market always craves something new, or in this case something old, however. When one allies this perfectly reasonably nostalgia to the fashion for single-vineyard wines (even in Champagne!) and, of course, to the well-rehearsed phenomenon of climate change, it becomes clear that the time is now ripe (pun intended) to resurrect the region’s still wines.

<h3><strong>Modest volumes</strong></h3>
<p><strong><a href="https://www.decanter.com/premium/introducing-coteaux-champenois-champagnes-still-wines-421053/">Coteaux Champenois</a></strong> may well have ‘earned’ appellation status as far back as 1974, but the volumes produced, varying according to vintage conditions, nonetheless seldom exceed 100,000 bottles per annum, somewhat inconsequential when one considers the typical annual Champagne figure of 300 million bottles.</p>
<p>A gentle reawakening then, but an important one for all that.</p>
<p>I ‘Zoom-chatted’ and tasted with both Cyril Brun at <strong><a href="https://www.decanter.com/premium/producer-profile-champagne-charles-heidsieck-397799/">Charles Heidsieck</a></strong> and Jean-Baptiste Lecaillon at Louis Roederer, and it’s immediately clear that their projects have been long in the offing and are viewed very seriously indeed.</p>
<div class="ad-container ad-container--mobile"><div id="post-inline-3" class="ipc-advert"></div></div>
<p>Is it possible to have two better ambassadors? No, I would suggest.</p>
<h3><b>Charles Heidsieck: focus on Chardonnay</b></h3>
<p>For Brun, Coteaux Champenois wines are the very opposite of Champagne; a monocultural phenomenon, born of one vineyard, one grape and one variety.</p>
<div class="ad-container ad-container--mobile"><div id="post-inline-4" class="ipc-advert"></div></div>
<p>Despite the fact that hitherto the majority of Coteaux Champenois has been made as a red wine, Brun’s project has been initiated with wines from <strong><a href="https://www.decanter.com/wine/grape-varieties/chardonnay/">the Chardonnay grape</a></strong>, one barrel of each from the villages of Oger, Vertus, Villers- Marmery and Montgueux (in the Aube) selected for his first release.</p>
<p>Most of the fruit is from 2017, yet he has elected to bottle the wines as NV, maybe because of the somewhat inauspicious reputation of the vintage in question.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<div class="ad-container ad-container--mobile"><div id="post-inline-5" class="ipc-advert"></div></div>
<p>His subsequent releases are from 2018 and are labelled thus; they include fruit from the two great Montagne de Reims villages of Ambonnay and Ay – the first red, the second white, both luxuriating in the warmth of the year.</p>
<p>‘My aim,’ he states, ‘is to put down a cultural record of the sites in question’; a cultural record in the sense that these wines really capture the<i> terroir</i>; Champagne, leaving aside its multiplicity of provenance, becomes obscured behind the complexity of its winemaking.</p>
<p>With Coteaux Champenois, on the other hand, there is nowhere to hide. Just as well that the wines are good (getting better I suspect) and each village representative impressively different.</p>

<h3><b>Louis Roederer: Purity of fruit</b></h3>
<p>For Jean-Baptiste Lecaillon, who has been <strong><a href="https://www.decanter.com/wine-news/louis-roederer-still-wines-champagne-region-453671/">developing the project</a></strong> since the turn of the century, there is a natural corollary between these still wines and his mission to convert his vineyards to organic and ultimately biodynamic viticulture.</p>
<p>Again, the subtext is one of transparency; no pesticides, no herbicides, no <i>dosage</i>; just high-quality fruit. Very exciting indeed. ‘It’s not Champagne,’ he says, and ‘even more important, it’s not Burgundy’.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>There is no aspiration to make a simulacrum of white (or red) Burgundy, dining out on the fact that Burgundy is getting hotter and (maybe) starting to lose elegance. This is not a pale imitation game. These wines have ‘higher acidity but more energy’. They are, he adds, ‘starting to smile’.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<h3><b>Learning curve</b></h3>
<p>Smiles apart, Lecaillon is in earnest, but happily admits that he is still acquiring knowledge; there is so much to learn, he says, explaining that he decided, almost at the last minute, to reject his efforts from 2014-2017.</p>
<p>Only with the gloriously warm 2018 was he satisfied, selecting ultimately one plot in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger <i>(lieu-dit</i> Volibarts) for his white and another in Mareuil-sur Aÿ (<i>lieu-dit</i> Charmont) for his red.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>The plots are minute, producing only 2,880 and 1,631 bottles respectively. I am honoured to have tasted them.</p>
<p>Jean Baptiste states that the project is rapidly evolving, specifying for example that the oak regime will differ for the 2019s (more oak for the white, less for the red) and he is fully open about the rigours of site selection (early ripening essential), skin contact, yeast strains and everything else which has to be viewed through a different lens. As he says, ‘It’s not Champagne’ and therefore the wheel has to be reinvented.</p>
<h3><b>The movement gains pace</b></h3>
<p>Jean Baptise and Cyril are far too modest to identify themselves as latter-day Dom Pérignons, but there is something very exciting to be ‘in on’ such a rare and fascinating rebirth in the region.</p>
<p>They are not alone, and it was rewarding to taste the wines from the Aube, courtesy of the delightful Drappier family; also the intriguing duo made by Henri Giraud, one of the most impressive growers in the village of Aÿ; and finally a pair made by the ever-likeable René Geoffroy, champion of the village of Cumières.</p>
<div class="injection"></div>
<p>There are also interesting examples made by Lassaigne, Egly-Ouriet, Tarlant and several others.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>All these latter-day Doms will not be tasting the stars; rather they have their feet firmly on the ground and anticipate, over the next few years, a minute and entirely intriguing dissemination of the <i>terroir</i> that can be most faithfully exposed in the region’s still wines.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
