2023 Romain Henin La Bulle Libre L'Odyssee Petillante Chapitre II Brut Nature Champagne, France
$135.00
Champagne Romain Henin — La Bulle Libre is the expression of a singular vision in the heart of the Marne Valley. Brothers Romain and Thomas Henin steward roughly 7 hectares of biodynamically-farmed vineyards around Aÿ and Mareuil-le-Port. Here, no tractors roam; instead, every vine is tended by hand in a model of agroforestry and biodynamic care, with fruit trees and cover crops enriching soil life and biodiversity. The vines, which are planted on clay-limestone soils and cultivated without herbicides or synthetic inputs, build ripeness and natural acidity, forming the backbone of the house style.
50% Pinot Noir 40% Meunier 10% Chardonnay
Native yeast fermentation and malolactic converison. Élevage in oak barrels on fine lees for one year; secondary fermentation uses wild yeasts from the following year’s harvest. Minimal intervention: no chaptalization, lees stirring, or chilling of the Champagne. Élevage in oak barrels on fine lees for one year
