Francoise Bedel is one of the few Champagne producers who is certified biodynamic, and who is dedicated to the philosophy, as opposed to so many growers who use bits and pieces of its ideology. The parcels lie in the Marne, on the banks of the river. Francoise took over about 21 acres in 1979. When her son, Vincent, fell ill, she used homeopathy to help his symptoms; over time, this led her to biodynamic farming, which she implemented in 1998. Vincent joined the business in 2003.
This particular bottling is a selection of mostly pinot meunier from limestone soils.
