Bottle production : 50,000
Category: Champagne

Relative newcomers to the Champagne sector, two dynamic Cotes de Bar natives with Champagne in their veins, are united in a passion to create terroir-based quality Champagne. On show will be an innovative range of barrel-fermented Champagnes, focused on Monocépages, including:

Récolte Noire : Blanc de Noirs, 100% Pinot Noir

Récolte Blanche : Blanc de Blancs, 100% Chardonnay

Récolte Brute : Extra-Brut, 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay

Récolte Rose : Rosé, 100% Pinot Noir

Dosnon and Lepage seek to produce complex and full Champagnes while preserving their finesse and their purity with a low dosage. They believe that the use of oak imparts complexity to their wines, and they opt for barrels over 5 years old to ensure that the wood does not confer tannins or flavour to their Champagne.

The wines are much acclaimed in France, and having no UK distribution yet, Dosnon & Lepage are looking to replicate this success on the Irish market.

FAST TRACK TABLES

Sopexa is putting in place 4 Fast Track tables where wines from each producer will be available for tasting.

The varieties are:

  • Robust Reds

  • Fruity Reds

  • Fresh whites

  • Full bodied whites

These tables target agents and importers looking for new products or exclusivity and aims to give them a shortcut to the styles available at the Fair. The table will enable them to taste peacefully up to two wines per stand in order to determine quickly and objectively which exhibitor can offer products that are more suited to their needs or business.
