Terroir-Champagne-Ruinart

Terroirs

Montagne de Reims,
Trépail

From the slopes of Trépail, a Premier Cru village on the Montagne de Reims, the terroir of L'Artiste lies on chalky, predominantly limestone soils, particularly favorable to Chardonnay. This fine, draining chalk gives the wine its mineral tension and crystalline purity. The altitude and exposure of the plots enable slow ripening, guaranteeing freshness, aromatic finesse and natural balance.
