Champagne Hector-Bastien
One of the few champagne houses where the whole process takes place under the watchful eye of the same Chef de Cave From planting to bottle",
known as
Le Moulin Du Magny, July 2004
We
produce all three "appellations" of Champagne from our "cépage"
pinot noir and chardonnay grown locally on our own hectares of Champagne
"appelation" wineyards.
All
our champagnes are artisanal productions with manual labour rather than
machinery, produced with great care by Chef de Cave Sylvain Espaullard himself.
We only use grapes from our own registered wineyards in Les Riceys. Because our
artisanal production capacity is limited our excess grape production is
purchased by big name Champagne producers of Epernay & Reims (e.g. Moet
& Chandon, Castelaine).
Mere
words can not do justice to a noble champagne such as Hector-Bastien, it has to
be tasted and enjoyed.
Our
Brut Reserve champagne is made with care and attention with the time
honoured traditions of the region of Champagne. It will seduce you with its
fruity aroma and finesse of its bubbles.
Our
Champagne Rosé des Riceys is an elegant Champagne with a unique
and subtle aroma characteristic of Les Riceys.
Our
Champagne Blanc de Blanc with a bouquet typical of the chardonney "cépage"
and a wonderful light body is well adapted for enjoyment during long evenings.
Please
