Champagne Paul Launois

Contraste #3

The Champagne Contraste by Paul Launois is born from a precise, terroir-driven vision of Meunier, interpreted through vineyards located around the Vallée de l’Ardre, in the Montagne de Reims. A less conventional area yet one of strong expressive interest, where the grape variety finds ideal conditions to convey freshness, tension, and a clear, defined aromatic profile. The Contraste project aims to highlight the dialogue between energy and finesse, revealing an authentic and measured expression.

This Edition #3, based on the 2022 vintage, is a Blanc de Noirs vinified in stainless steel (70%) and oak barrels (30%), with spontaneous fermentation and natural malolactic fermentation. After tirage, the wine undergoes lees ageing for over 24 months, a choice that shapes its structure and overall balance. The profile is completed by a 1 g/l dosage, in Extra Brut style, enhancing precision and drive.

On tasting, Contraste #3 shows a tonic, immediate attack, followed by a layered bouquet of yellow fruits and yellow flowers. On the palate, the wine unfolds with a smooth, well-calibrated progression, supported by vibrant freshness and an elegant texture. The structure is balanced, the persistence extended, and the finish lingers on a subtle saline note, delivering a harmonious and refined whole.


Paul Launois

Champagne Paul Launois takes shape in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, a Grand Cru village in the CĂ´te des Blancs, where the family has long been connected to viticulture and the supply of grapes to major Champagne houses. A turning point came in 2010, when Julien Launois, after international experiences, together with his wife Sarah took over the family Domaine and launched an independent project, realized with the first harvest in 2015 and the creation of the label dedicated to their son Paul.

Across approximately 6 hectares planted exclusively with Chardonnay, the production stands out for a precise and thoughtful approach, aimed at highlighting the identity of individual parcels and the chalky terroir of the CĂ´te des Blancs. The winemaking follows a measured philosophy, with a balanced use of stainless steel and oak, designed to guide the wine without altering its original expression. The result is a range of Champagnes defined by finesse, where balance, freshness, and mineral tension shape an elegant and deeply terroir-driven style.
