Formerly part of the Bérêche & Fils portfolio but now released under a distinct label and produced at the hands of the winemaker Juliette Alpis—with Raphaël Bérêche still evidently involved—the Domaine Les Monts Fournois 2022 Coteaux Champenois Blanc Ludes Premier Cru originates from a substantial eight-hectare, south-facing vineyard rooted in the classic chalky soils of Ludes, where the topsoil is notably shallow. It opens with a bouquet of white flowers, crisp yellow apple and toasted almonds, complemented by an exotic touch derived from Chardonnay-Muscaté selections incorporated in the blend. On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied, ample and textural, with a rich core of fruit shaped by its solar exposure and the character of the year. Bright acidity lends certain lift and energy, leading to a long finish.

Mirabelle, yellow-peach and lemony notes, together with lanolin and chalky minerals. Tantalizing wine with medium body and vibrant, juicy character. The ripeness of the 2022 vintage is clear in the rich stone-fruit, yet the finish is toasty and savory. Drink now.
The 2022 Coteaux Champenois is racy and expressive right out of the glass. Lemon confit, marzipan, white flowers, passion fruit, mint and a kiss of French oak meld together effortlessly. Tropical notes lend an exotic flair, along with lovely weight and creaminess that builds through the mid-palate and into the finish. This is the first Coteaux Champenois made by Juliette Alpis.
