Stylish and young (January 2010?), this on-the-scene Champagne house with vineyards in the Côtes des Bars, is owned by the equally stylsh and young, Stephane Lombardi. He keeps his menu simple: 3 mono-variety cuvées, 3 vintage, aged 24-36 months on their lees before disgorgement. Their Tim Burton-esque label is trademarked and their Champagne is astoundingly good. Cin cin!
