Champagne Lagille: A Vision of Pinot Meunier Mastery in Montagne de Reims

Nestled in the serene village of Trélou-sur-Marne (Treslon), near the crest of the Montagne de Reims, Champagne Lagille is a distinguished family-owned maison rooted in one of Champagne’s most revered terroirs. Situated at the heart of Pinot Meunier territory, the estate has carved its identity through an unwavering dedication to this expressive varietal, crafting Champagnes that reveal its vibrant complexity and profound connection to place. This philosophy is epitomised by an exclusive range of four 100% Meunier wines: two Blanc de Noirs cuvées, a Rosé de Saignée, and a rare Coteaux Champenois Rouge. With the exception of Brut L’Inattendue, each originates from the celebrated single-vineyard lieu-dit La Garenne, a site prized for its chalk-rich soils and distinct microclimate that imbue the wines with striking minerality and precision.

As a boutique producer crafting just 50,000 bottles annually, Champagne Lagille champions artisanal excellence over volume. Its single-vineyard releases, limited to 600 - 1,200 bottles per cuvée, stand among the most refined interpretations of Pinot Meunier in contemporary Champagne, balancing linear structure, crystalline freshness, and layered mineral depth. Guided by a philosophy steeped in sustainable viticulture and profound respect for terroir, the maison employs meticulous practices - from organic farming to low-intervention winemaking - to ensure each bottle reflects both the heritage of Trélou-sur-Marne and the dynamic potential of this singular appellation.

In marrying tradition with innovation, Champagne Lagille offers a compelling narrative of authenticity, where the legacy of centuries meets the bold vision of a new generation. For connoisseurs seeking wines of purity, nuance, and unrivalled typicity, these limited editions encapsulate the soul of Montagne de Reims’ Meunier - a testament to a family’s lifelong dialogue with the land.

Champagne Lagille 位於香檳區 Montagne de Reims 的 Trélou-sur-Marne（Treslon）村，專注於釀造 100% Pinot Meunier，以四款酒款展現該品種的多元潛力：兩款 Blanc de Noirs、一款 Rosé de Saignée，以及罕見的紅葡萄酒 Coteaux Champenois Rouge。其中三款酒源自單一園 La Garenne，這片朝南坡地的白堊土（Chalk）與燧石層，賦予酒液獨特的礦物銳度與結構張力。

La Garenne 園的種植可追溯至 1950 年代，酒莊自 1980 年代實施有機管理，禁用除草劑並以手工採收維護果實完整。年均產量僅 50,000 瓶，單一園系列每款限量 600-1,200 瓶，如旗艦酒款 La Garenne Brut 基酒經 6 年酒渣陳釀，補糖 4.5 g/L，展現白桃、黃檸檬與白堊岩的冷冽礦感；La Garenne Extra Brut 則以 2.5 g/L 補糖凸顯刀鋒般酸度，陳年潛力逾 15 年。

Rosé de Saignée 透過 48 小時浸皮萃取淡鮭魚色澤，風味交織野草莓、血橙與粉紅胡椒辛香；Coteaux Champenois Rouge 則以整串發酵工藝，打造單寧絲滑如勃艮第 Pinot Noir 的靜態紅酒，年產僅 800 瓶。

釀造上，酒莊堅持天然酵母自發發酵，部分酒款使用中性橡木桶，酒渣接觸時間依酒款介於 3 至 6 年。此工藝使酒款兼具線性結構與層次複雜性，如 Brut L’Inattendue 雖非單一園，卻以混釀技藝展現 Montagne de Reims 的風土多樣性。

Champagne Lagille 被視為 Pinot Meunier 的革新標竿，其酒款常見於歐洲 Michelin 星級餐廳，權威酒評盛讚其「重新定義品種優雅極限」。對追求風土純粹性的藏家而言，這些限量酒款不僅是技藝結晶，更是 Montagne de Reims 千年白堊地層的液態銘刻。
