Cuvee 745 is here! The latest wine from the fabulous freres Chiquet is a portrait of 2017 and their harvest in Aÿ, Dizy, Hautvillers (65%), Avize and Oiry (35%).

Winter and spring were exceptionally dry; the beginning of spring was mild but, in April, destructive frosts ravaged the vineyards, especially in the Cote des Blancs. Temperatures then rose and the weather was good until July. The end of the growing season was warm with some rain. We began harvest on 4th September, finishing on the 13th. Rigorous sorting resulted in a low volume of ripe and healthy grapes. The resulting wines proved to be rich and dense and we completed the cuvee with some reserve wines. Dosage: 0.75 g/L.’ – Jean-Herve Chiquet
