Salima & Alain Cordeuil

Four hectares in the Côte des Bar for Domaine Salima & Alain Cordeuil, husband and wife who, since 2011, have been making their own Champagne, producing around 10,000 bottles a year. The philosophy of the Domaine is to transmit all the power of their land, respecting organic farming and giving their wines as much natural imprint as possible. All the vineyards and wines have been certified organic since 2015; the wines are produced naturally with strictly spontaneous fermentation and there is no or very little use of sulphur dioxide.

Salima & Alain Cordeuil attach great importance to time and the natural cycle, and this vision is reflected in all stages of production. The vines are given time to regenerate after the harvest, thus respecting their vegetative rest; the grapes are given time to ripen, to fill with sugar, to be harvested at the best time and to offer musts with a good balance, always naturally, thanks to the indigenous yeasts. Time for the wines to mature for a long time on their lees so that they can reflect their terroir and climate; time for the cuvées to age in the cellar, at least 4-5 years, to express all their character and vintage.
