Champagne Brut Nature
Champ Fremyot

The Champagne Champ Fremyot by Domaine Doussot-Bourdot is a Blanc de Noirs made from Pinot Noir grapes sourced from a single parcel (lieu-dit) located in the village of Loches-sur-Ource, in the Côte des Bar. The vines, with an average age of 45 years and an east-facing exposure, grow on Kimmeridgian clay-limestone soils, rich in fossiliferous marls, a key element in defining depth, tension and mineral character. Vineyard work follows sustainable principles, in line with Billy Doussot’s vision, focused on respecting natural balance and enhancing the expression of the terroir.

This edition, 2022 harvest, is developed through vinification and fermentation entirely in oak barrels with spontaneous fermentations, followed by a maturation of around 10 months without filtration or fining, in order to preserve integrity and expressive authenticity, while after tirage it undergoes lees ageing that enhances complexity and depth. The absence of final dosage, in Brut Nature style, maintains a pure and direct profile.

On the palate, Champ Fremyot reveals a deep and vibrant profile, where ripe Pinot Noir fruit intertwines with notes of sweet spices, candied orange peel and white pepper. It is enveloping and structured, supported by a well-defined saline texture and a vibrant freshness that leads into a long and persistent finish, precisely reflecting the mineral character of the soil. The total production is 2,684 bottles.
