This champagne is made under Paul Launois' "Single Barrel" Champagne program, whereby customers co-craft a single barrel of vintage Champagne from a selection of Launois' Grand Cru plots. Made from 100% Chardonnay, this single barrel of Champagne comes from Launois' Haut Voies plot in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. It was made with malolactic conversion and aged 11 months in the "SB1815" new oak barrel. The barrel was produced by artisan cooper, Tonnellerie Artisanale de Champagne, with 4-year-old aged staves in 2018. It was then bottled in July 2019 with a dosage of 1 gram per litre. It was disgorged in December 2024. The result is simply spectacular.
