Description

Founded in 2006 by Olivier Langlais, the house of Champagne Solemme is located in the Montagne de Reims, more precisely in Villers-Aux-Noeuds, where Emmanuel Brochet is also at home. Olivier converted the family’s six hectares to organic and then to biodynamic farming, with organic certification following in 2018. The six hectares are distributed among three Premier Cru vineyards in the Montagne de Reims and the Vallée de l’Ardre, which has a diverse geology of chalk, clay-limestone, silt, sand and the hard, so-called millstone. As is typical for this part of the appellation, Meunier dominates over Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The vines are on average 52 years old. Olivier vinifies in stainless steel, does not chaptalize or filter, and does not add dosage or sulfites. These are pure wines that spend on average 36 months sur lattes and very precisely reflect the typicity of the Montagne.
