The Maisoncelle cuvee is vibrant and full of character with silky bubbles teasing the palate.

Dehours Champagnes are eagerly sought after by champagne enthusiasts for their renowned 'Meunier style'; bold, flavourful and demonstrating a clear terroir-orientated approach. Maisoncelle comes from one of our rare plots of old (and small-yield) pinot noir vines. It is situated halfway up the slope, above the Village of Port à Binson (within the Mareuil-le-Port district), and has a North-East orientation. This single vineyard of Pinot Noir, planted on light limestone and iron-rich soil, is a true powerhouse. 

The bouquet opens with an abundance of tension, red fruits, blackcurrant and citrus notes of lemon rind laced in candied red fruits. On the palate, the wine sweeps through with vibrancy and character. The bubbles are silky and teasing all along with plenty of depth for a medium bodied wine.
