    Description Olivier Horiot Cuvée 5 Sens Brut Nature

    Estate

    The Olivier Horiot estate is based in Les Riceys, in the heart of the Côte des Bars, a renowned winegrowing area in the Aube region of Champagne. Olivier Horiot is a committed winemaker practicing biodynamic viticulture, focusing on terroir expression and the authenticity of rare Champagne grape varieties. His approach balances tradition and innovation to create precise and characterful wines.

    Vineyard

    The vineyards are planted on the clay-limestone slopes typical of the Côte des Bars, giving excellent ripeness potential. The diversity of parcels allows a broad expression of both classic and forgotten varietals like Arbane and Pinot Blanc. The entire vineyard is cultivated organically and with biodynamic practices.

    Wine

    This Champagne showcases the uniqueness of the terroir and highlights rare grape varieties. It combines finesse, complexity and mineral tension. Carefully aged, it is a confidential cuvée emphasizing Champagne's genetic diversity. Limited production ensures precision and rigorous selection.

    Vintage

    The 2015 vintage benefited from favorable weather with a hot, dry summer followed by timely August rains, ensuring optimal grape maturity. This vintage yields structured and generous Champagnes suitable for aging.

    Vinification & Aging

    Fermentations take place in old barrels using indigenous yeasts to protect the wine's sense of place. Malolactic fermentation is partly carried out depending on vintage conditions. Ageing on fine lees enhances aromatic complexity. Bottling is followed by extended aging on lees before disgorgement with no or very low dosage.

    Arbane, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Meunier, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay
