Laurent Champs makes some of the classiest wines in all of Champagne. Nuance, polish and sophistication are all signatures readers will find here. No matter the vintage or wine, there is a sense of effortless grace at Vilmart that I always admire.

Laurent Champs is at the top of his game. This is another stellar set of wines from Vilmart. As always, the Vilmart Champagnes emphasize finesse over power. The wines are all vinified and aged in oak. Blocked malolactic fermentations help give these wines freshness and briskness.

When I think of finesse in Champagne, Vilmart is one of the first names that comes to mind. Proprietor Laurent Champs has the magic touch in crafting exquisite wines that can stand with the very best. All of the Vilmart Champagnes are aged in oak, but the wood influence is almost always quite discreet as opposed to the more overt, oxidative styles at houses such as Krug and Henri Giraud, among others, where the oak signature is much more pronounced.
