Emmanuel Brochet hails from the Villers-aux-Noeuds village south of the city of Reims. He farms 2.5 hectares of vines, all located in a single parcel, and planted with all three major varieties with the oldest vines dating back to 1962. The vineyard was converted to organic viticulture starting with the 2008 vintage, which he does more out of respect for the land than something he necessarily believes results in better wine.

Another new entry in the Selected range from the premier cru village of Pierry, this 2018 Rosé is a saignée of Pinot Meunier raised in oak and disgorged after four years with a dosage of 3 g/L.
