In the glass

Cherry, raspberry and real structure

Deep pink from the saignée. Cherry, raspberry and stewed blackcurrant, with a touch of cranberry and a savoury, toasty note from its time on the lees. Powerful and dry, with racy acidity and real structure. Long finish.

The grapes

Pinot Noir and Meunier, pink from the skins

Rosé ! is made from Pinot Noir and Meunier, with Pinot Noir in the lead.

The colour comes from saignée: the black grapes sit on their skins until the juice turns pink, then it is drawn off. That is why it is darker and fruitier than most rosé Champagne.

The grower

Fabian Daviaux

Chavost is the old name of Chavot-Courcourt, a village just south of Épernay. Local growers set up their cooperative here in 1946. For decades it made Champagne for its members and sold grapes to the big houses, until it ran into trouble in the 2010s.

In 2019 the growers called Fabian Daviaux, a winemaker's son from the village, to run it. He said yes on his terms: organic farming, no sulphites from start to finish, no reserve wines, short ageing and no sugar added at the end. His brother draws the labels, cartoons of the cooperative and its members.

  • Salmon tartarePink with pink, the acidity cuts the fat
  • Jamón and saucissonSalt and fat, refreshed by the bubbles
  • Beetroot and goat's cheeseEarthy and sweet against a bone-dry finish
