Domaine Collet, Fons DionisII, Champagne, 2016
Domaine Collet’s Fons Dionis II comes from organically farmed parcels in the Côte de Sézanne, a sector of Champagne where ripe Pinot Noir develops both depth and lift in chalk-rich soils. The 2016 release reflects the domaine’s patient approach: a single-vintage Champagne aged extensively on the lees, gaining texture while preserving clarity. It’s a thoughtful expression of this southern stretch of Champagne, where fruit intensity and mineral freshness naturally meet.
The palate is refined and steady, with layers of orchard fruit, subtle pastry notes, and a clean mineral edge that keeps the wine lively. Extended aging adds quiet richness, yet the wine stays focused and energetic. It’s an elegant grower Champagne with enough generosity for celebration and enough restraint for everyday moments.
Varietal: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir
Appellation: Côte de Sézanne, Champagne, France
Farming: Organic
Style: Sparkling. Elegant, mineral-driven, and subtly rich
