Champagne Paul Lebrun shapes its cuvées thanks to the heritage left by the personalities of the family, generation after generation.
“Know-how is the art of working with one’s product,” says Nathalie Vignier, the winemaker. It encompasses the entire process of Champagne production. Pruning the vines in winter, trellising in June, hand-harvesting in early September, and the vinification process all characterize it.
The terroir holds an absolute significance for the vignerons of Paul Lebrun. It undeniably links the soils and cuvées through the hands of man. A symbiosis emerges, with its identity magnified by the winemaker, giving birth to these rare wines. This ever-present factor impacts the flavors year after year, shaping the soul of each bottle.
The distinctiveness is recognized in the chalky soils of the Côte des Blancs. It appears in Sézannais, linked to flint. This creates significant and rare gustatory notes. Magnified by daily work, it becomes an ally, a blessing. The rise of an incomparable Champagne certifies this. The art of knowing their lands and vines allows the winemakers of Champagne Paul Lebrun to produce an exceedingly rare quality.
The richness of the terroir lies in its perpetual evolution. The winemakers must evolve while cherishing this heritage.
The chalk cellar perfects the expression of Champagne Paul Lebrun during the long years of ageing, from the second fermentation to the realization of its organoleptic potential. Originally dug by Jules up to 10 meters deep in the 1860s, it evolved for 20 years before reaching its current size. Today, at a depth of 15 meters, the constant temperature of 12°C ensures ideal storage.
The cellar is an indispensable tool. Within its walls, ageing on lees will optimize the wines. The bottles slumber for many years, creating a true enchantment in this location
The vignerons at Champagne Paul Lebrun embody precision and meticulousness in their work. Every action must be carried out with rigor to perpetuate the art of Champagne. Nathalie Vignier unveils an animated version of her vision of being a winemaker.
The Passion as Heritage takes root nearly two centuries ago. While Champagne-making methods have evolved, the commitment of the winemaker and the symbiosis with the land remain steadfast. The viticultural alchemy continues through six generations. Each harvest establishes a delicate and symbolic connection to history. With a view of the past and a gaze fixed on the future and its projects, the Vignier-Lebrun family guides their steps towards the apex of the House. The conviction of past seasoned choices punctuates their daily life, their questioning, and their new adventures.
Champagne Paul Lebrun is a product of craftsmanship, an emanation of the terroir, an opus in itself. The Pleasure of the Senses encourages the alliance of Champagne and Gastronomy. The Vignier-Lebrun House embraces this principle and advocates for the search for sumptuous pairings that enhance the gustatory climax. Eager to respect the international aspect of Champagne and to stimulate creativity, they explore harmonies with foreign dishes. Asia, the Orient, and other regions are the terrains they dedicate themselves to.
