"Fabrice and Valerie Closset-Gaziaux both have educational backgrounds in agronomy and earth sciences. After having spent extensive time working to develop sustainable farming practices in Africa and then helping growers in the Loire develop organic and naturally balanced vineyards for 8 years, they decided (in 2008) to procure vineyards in South-Revermont, in the “premier plateau” of Jura.
Cuvee notes: Plenty of ripe fruit keeps this this zero dosage Crémant from being overly austere. Champ Divin's farmer fizz gets all of the first pass (early picked) fruit, and then only free run juice."
