Champagne Doyard

Les Lumières - Tome 2012


The Champagne Les Lumières - Tome 2012 by Doyard is born from an exceptional vintage and represents the pinnacle of the art of blending, in line with the family's vision. The cuvée combines 65% Chardonnay, sourced from the Grand Crus of Avize and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, with 35% Pinot Noir harvested in Aÿ, another prestigious Grand Cru of the Vallée de la Marne.

The grapes, exclusively from the 2012 harvest, come solely from the first pressing, ensuring purity and elegance. Vinification takes place entirely in Burgundy barrels of at least five previous uses, with spontaneous fermentations and no malolactic fermentation, in order to preserve the wine’s natural tension and varietal identity. After tirage, the wine is aged for over 120 months on the lees, developing rare and structured aromatic depth. The final dosage, under 2 g/l, places it in the Extra Brut category.

On the palate, Les Lumières stands out for its generous structure and vibrant energy, with a dense and refined texture. Notes of dried fruit, fine spices, and pastry blend seamlessly with a chiselled minerality, delivering a profile of remarkable precision and persistence. A cuvée produced only in the greatest vintages, it is a true expression of the artisanal and forward-looking philosophy of Domaine Doyard.


Doyard

The Doyard Domaine has its roots in Vertus, in the Côte des Blancs, where the family has been linked to viticulture since the 17th century. The official foundation dates back to 1927 with Maurice Doyard, who established a rigorous and authentic style aimed at showcasing Chardonnay and the mineral character of the chalky soils. Today, the estate is led by Guillaume Doyard, supported by his father Yannick, who remains active in the business.


The vineyard covers around 10 hectares divided between Vertus Premier Cru and the Grand Crus of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Avize, Cramant, Oger, and Aÿ. Some vines are over fifty years old and are farmed using organic methods, manual work, and the use of horses in the vineyards. This approach ensures low yields, respect for ecological balance, and grapes of outstanding quality, a true expression of the Côte des Blancs terroir.


In the cellar, the philosophy combines tradition and precision: gentle pressing with Coquard PAI presses, fermentations kept separate for each plot, and aging both in oak and stainless steel, without filtration or fining. All wines rest for at least 48 months on the lees, developing complexity, purity, and elegance — hallmarks of the Doyard style.
