The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine With a three-star rating in the RVF Guide, Domaine Pascal Doquet is a go-to destination for lovers of crisp and energetic Chardonnay-based Champagnes.

Located in Vertus on some of Champagne's most prestigious terroirs, this boutique estate spans just under 9 hectares. They organically cultivate magnificent crus from the Côte des Blancs—including the Grand Cru Mesnil-sur-Oger—and from the chalky slopes of Vitry-le-François.

They partially vinify their wines in barrels without new oak, and carefully control the dosage after extended cellar aging. The result is authentic and precise Champagnes, known for their long, saline finishes and distinctive character.
Wine Comprised of 33% wines from the 2019 vintage and 67% wines from a perpetual reserve started in 2012, which annually includes about half of the latest harvest, the Champagne 1er Cru Arpège Blanc de Blancs Extra-Brut is an exceptional Chardonnay. Delicately buttery and dynamic, this sophisticated, elegant, and precise blend is sure to be universally appealing. In Magnum format, the pleasure and conviviality will be multiplied!
