Champagne De Sousa

Réserve Magnum

The Champagne Réserve by De Sousa is a Blanc de Blancs crafted from 100% Chardonnay, sourced exclusively from Grand Cru vineyards in the prestigious villages of the Côte des Blancs: Avize, Cramant, Oger, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, and Chouilly. The vines, cultivated according to organic and biodynamic principles, have an average age of over 40 years and are rooted in chalky soils of exceptional quality.

Vinification takes place in stainless steel tanks to preserve the varietal purity. A significant proportion of vin de réserve (at least 30%) ensures stylistic consistency and adds complexity to the cuvée, which is the result of blending two or three different vintages. After tirage, the wine matures on its lees for around 24 months. The final dosage, in Extra Brut style, maintains the mineral tension and freshness, while also enhancing the wine’s creamy texture.

On the palate, Réserve opens with elegant aromas of white flowers, pear, white peach, and candied lemon, enriched by notes of brioche, hazelnut, and delicate toasted nuances. The palate is creamy, supported by a vibrant minerality and fine bubbles, leading to a long, saline finish with remarkable aromatic precision.

De Sousa

Champagne De Sousa was founded in the late 1950s by Antoine and Zoémie De Sousa in Avize, in the heart of the Côte des Blancs. In 1986, their son Erick took over the estate, adopting a natural and pioneering approach. Biodynamic conversion began in 1999, with organic certification in 2010 and Demeter certification in 2013, establishing the Domaine among the most virtuous in Champagne.

The Domaine covers around 10 hectares, located mainly in the Grand Cru villages of Avize, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Cramant, and Oger, with vines averaging 45 years of age. Soil management involves light ploughing, sometimes with horses, to preserve microbial life and minerality. Winemaking relies on indigenous yeasts, natural temperature control, bâtonnage, and manual remuage, while blends are crafted to express each parcel and terroir.

Passed away in 2023 at the age of 59, Erick De Sousa leaves a legacy carried on by his children Charlotte, Julie, and Valentin, who passionately continue their father’s philosophy. The respect for nature, artisanal winemaking, moderate use of oak barrels (5% new), and focus on the identity of each cuvée remain unchanged, keeping alive the authentic spirit of De Sousa.
