Description

A rare expression of Chardonnay from Belval-sous-Châtillon, Les Champs de Romy is built on restraint and precision. The 2020 vintage combines ripe orchard fruit with subtle exotic notes, supported by a fine mineral backbone. Gentle vinification and extended ageing shape a supple, focused Champagne where freshness, finesse and quiet depth converge. 100% Chardonnay grown on brown limestone soils with clay. 30 months of aging in cellars. 

In the hills of Belval-sous-Châtillon, the Faivre family has cultivated Meunier for eight generations. At Domaine R. Faivre, this grape is not simply part of the vineyard; it represents the estate's identity. Today, Nicolas Faivre continues this lineage, with Meunier representing nearly 80% of the domaine's plantings. 

The vineyards are farmed with a regenerative and sustainable philosophy: no herbicides or insecticides, meticulous manual trellising, and rigorous pruning to keep yields naturally balanced. Each parcel is treated as its own ecosystem and vinified separately, revealing the subtle interplay between Belval's chalk and clay-limestone soils.

In the cellar, each parcel is also pressed and fermented individually before blending, preserving the distinct character of each plot. This parcel-driven approach allows Faivre to craft a wide range of Champagnes, from pure expressions of Meunier to blends that bring Pinot Noir and Chardonnay into elegant balance. The house style is both generous and precise: deeply expressive, gastronomic wines that offer immediate pleasure while possessing the structure and depth to evolve beautifully with time.
