Jean Comyn, Mont-St-Pierrre, Champagne

Based in the Marne Valley, the Comyn family has been producing its delicious champagnes for over 40 years. With the help of four other families, Comyn cultivates 40ha of vines, producing 80,000 bottles per annum. 50% of their vines are Pinot Meurnier, the the balance being evenly balanced between Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. There is a richness in the blending which is the key to its style. Their range of wines have a rich depth to them, making them more 'serious' than you might expect from a house champagne.
