This year, Château Valandraud celebrates a remarkable milestone: 35 vintages of Saint‑Émilion’s most emblematic “garage wine” turned Premier Grand Cru Classé, crowned by the 2025 vintage – offered En Primeur and marking the start of a new chapter alongside the Lefévère family.

The Chavost wine estate represents a forward-thinking generation of Grower Champagne producers who emphasize pure, unmanipulated expression of the grape and the terroir. Located in the village of Chavot-Courcourt in the heart of the Vallée de la Marne, this house is gaining recognition for its commitment to natural winemaking and its focus on single-parcel and single-grape expressions.

The Héritage Blanc de Blancs OWC NV cuvée represents the pinnacle of historical craftsmanship at Champagne Pierre Péters. It was created as a single-edition release to celebrate the estate's centenary (1919–2019) and is, quite literally, a living reserve that embodies the family’s history.

The 2012 vintage marked the genesis of one of the most intriguing cuvées in the Pierre Péters range: the Les Montjolys Cuvée Spéciale Blanc de Blancs Brut. This release was the very first to be composed entirely of Chardonnay grapes from the eponymous lieu-dit (single vineyard plot) located in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger.
