THE MAISON
Located in the heart of the Champagne region, in Mardeuil, near Epernay, the Maison Beaumont des Crayères was founded in 1955 and today encompasses a significant number of winegrowers (250) for a total of 90 hectares of vineyards located in Epernay and the surrounding areas of Cumières, Hautvillers, and Dizy, as well as Trépail, Avize, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, and Oger.
The name Beaumont des Crayères comes from "Beaumont", the name of one of the best hills in Mardeuil where the main vineyards of the company grow, and "crayères" which refers to the rock composition found in the best Champagne crus, namely gypsum. The name was chosen for this reason, reflecting the great pride and attachment to this terroir, an attachment also represented by the rose at the center of the company logo.
Three major grape varieties are cultivated for champagne production: Chardonnay (25%) which provides freshness and finesse; Pinot Noir (15%) which gives structure and body; and Pinot Meunier (60%) which imparts aromatic sweetness and roundness to the wines.
Vinification: They are carried out separately, meaning each variety is vinified in separate tanks, and the different pressings come from various selections of bunches from different portions of the vineyard. This separate vinification is key to the quality of the champagnes from this Maison; it allows for a rational winemaking approach to each cuvée, which will offer a wide range of wines at the time of blending.
For the prestigious cuvée Nostalgie, part of the wines ages in wood.
