Jean-Baptiste Geoffroy, or “JB” to his friends, is “the most excited guy in Champagne” – the 3rd generation of his family at the Estate and now at the age of 43 he is completely in charge and has a brand new state-of-the-art winery. He is a fanatical winemaker, always curious and meticulous – and the result is 10,000 cases each year of vibrant, fruity Champagnes. Working with Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes from Cumières in the Vallée de la Marne, JB does a very traditional fermentation in wood and then bleeds the juice off of the skins when the color is just right – the “saignée” method. The Rosé that results is very rare, and “lovely, graceful, elegant for such a juice-bomb”. (Terry Theise)
