Richard Petit’s family roots in Avize go back centuries, caring for Chardonnay on the chalky soils of the Côte de Blancs. Véronique Bajan’s clan hails from Pinot Noir terroir in Verzenay, grand cru land on the Montagne de Reims. Love, then marriage, came first in 1997; then in 1999, when Richard took over his family’s winery in Avize, the idea that they could create wine together blossomed. With Richard’s attention
to detail in the fields and Véronique’s tasting prowess in the cellar, the small-batch, grand cru wines of Petit & Bajan are very much the voice of Champagne’s new generation. These are bold, vinous wines that set a higher bar for grand cru Champagne.

70% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir. Fruit is hand-harvested. Chardonnay is grown in the villages of Avize, Oger and Cramant; Pinot Noir is from the village of Verzenay. Fermented on selected yeasts in temperature-controlled, stainless steel tanks. Malolactic conversion allowed. Dosage 3 g/L.

Aromas of small red berries, spring flowers, light herbs, golden toast. Silky texture, mouth-filling, ripe; lacy flavors of citrus, summer fruit.
