Champagne Maxence Janisson
Pie DanseThe Champagne Pie Danse by Maxence Janisson is a true Blanc de Noirs cuvée, obtained exclusively from Pinot Noirgrown in the Lieu-Dit of the same name, located near the village of Épernay. This first edition perfectly represents the identity of the terroir and the independent winemaking philosophy of Maxence, who favors a natural approach, respectful of the environment and raw materials.
2021 vintage base, which involves an initial fermentation in stainless steel, followed by a passage in fût de chênetowards the end of the process, to enrich the structure of the wine. During the year, frequent bâtonnage is carried out, a practice that contributes to giving it greater complexity. The wine is not filtered, to preserve its authenticity, and it matures on lees for about 24 months. The final dosage is extremely low, equal to 1.5 g/l, making it an Extra Brut of great purity.
In tasting, the Champagne Pie Danse appears with a brilliant golden yellow color, luminous and captivating. On the nose, it opens with generous aromas of candied yellow fruit, such as apricot and nectarine, followed, after a slight aeration, by elegant notes of dried fruit, enriching its aromatic complexity. On the palate, it is rich and enveloping, with a marked stone fruit expressiveness, accompanied by subtle nuances of blackberry and almond. The generous initial impact gives way to great finesse, enhanced by a slight bitter note of orange zest and a delicate marine sapidity, which amplify its persistence and elegance.
The Champagne Pie Danse marks the first independent edition of Maxence Janisson, created with an artisanal and natural approach, in full respect of the environment and raw materials. Produced in limited quantities – with 3,199 bottles and 144 magnums – it is an exclusive expression of his winemaking philosophy, which enhances the identity of Pinot Noir and the unique character of the Épernay terroir.

Champagne Maxence Janisson
Maxence Janisson’s winery is located in Épernay, in the heart of Champagne, within the Côteaux Sud d’Épernay area, a wine-growing region that extends along the left bank of the Marne River. This territory is characterized by slopes shaped by the Le Cubry, Le Darcy, and Le Mancy streams, which contribute to the diversity of the soils and the mineral richness of the vineyards. The unique configuration of the terroir makes this area an ideal place for viticulture, providing perfect conditions for cultivating high-quality grapes.
The story of Maxence Janisson is that of a man who chose an independent path, leaving Maison Janisson-Baradon to devote himself to viticulture with an artisanal and organic approach. After handing over the commercial management to his brother, he repurchased his vineyards, cultivating them with sustainable methods to enhance the terroir of Épernay. This led him to establish his own brand, drawing inspiration from the Burgundian tradition and highlighting the uniqueness of each parcel.
Maxence cultivates 4.5 hectares of vineyards on the southern slopes of the Côteaux Sud d’Épernay, with Chardonnay (60%), Pinot Noir (25%), and a small percentage of Meunier (14%). The clay-limestone soils, with a strong presence of chalk, give his wines freshness and minerality. His first Champagne, Pie Danse, is a unique expression of Pinot Noir, sourced from a mid-slope parcel on brown, clay-rich soils. Debuting in 2024, it embodies his winemaking philosophy: respect for the terroir, freshness, aromatic tension, and vinification by parcel.
