Presentation :

Domaine Antoine Chevalier in Vitry en Perthois

Located in the north-east of the Marne in the Coteaux Vitryats area.
The vines have been planted here since 1973 by my grandfather and father, and more recently in 2000 by myself.
Exclusively Chardonnay on a subsoil of outcropping white chalk facing south/south-east.
It’s a relatively recent estate, since I’ve been making my first champagnes at home since the 2016 vintage. My father was first and foremost a farmer, breeder and cooperator on the vineyard side.

I had to work two jobs for a long time to succeed in this project, this dream of becoming independent.

Today, my estate is certified organic and biodynamic, with a vat room, cellar, packaging and even the arrival of the family’s first press for the 2023 harvest.
Quentin and I work full-time on my 2.5 ha of vines.

We’re both passionate about what we do, and it’s a real pleasure to be constantly thinking about how to improve our approach to vines and wines.

Our philosophy: “The Horizon is the limit”, no certainty, but the desire to move towards greater sincerity and coherence in our practices.

We vinify:
2 plot-based champagnes :
_ Carkonnia ( Lieu Dit: Le Jardin le Meunier in Vitry en Perthois )
_ Tecta Silva ( Location: Les Renardes in Couvrot)

1 Coteaux Champenois:
_ Les Crochots (Location: Les Crochots in Vitry en Perthois)

1 Ratafia Champenois

With each cuvée, we seek the singularity of a place and a vintage.

We look forward to meeting you.
