More questions
The Volupté Extra Brut by Geoffroy is an excellent example of Champagne that combines elegance and freshness, a refined expression of the terroir of the Côte des Bar. This cuvée is born from a careful selection of traditional grape varieties, mainly Pinot Noir, cultivated with care in the estate vineyards, offering superior quality grapes and a perfect balance between maturity and acidity.
The winemaking method follows the strict rules of the champenois tradition, with a second fermentation in the bottle that gives the product a fine and persistent perlage. The extended aging on the lees gives aromatic complexity and a silky structure on the palate. On the nose, there are prominent scents of ripe white fruit, such as apples and pears, accompanied by delicate hints of white flowers and mineral notes, which blend with a pleasant citrus freshness.
On the palate, the Volupté Extra Brut is balanced and lively, with a clean and persistent finish. It is perfect as an aperitif or paired with fish dishes, shellfish, and fresh cheeses, ideal for those seeking a refined and authentic tasting experience in the heart of Champagne.

The story
The Geoffroy family has cultivated vineyards in the Vallée de la Marne since the 17th century. In the early 1950s Roger Geoffroy began bottling under his own name. Management then passed to René and later to Jean-Baptiste Geoffroy, who moved the winemaking and commercial operations to Aÿ in 2008. The house has grown while remaining family-run and involving the next generation.
Production philosophy
Production aims to respect the soil and the vineyard’s expression: minimal vineyard work and winemaking conducted parcel by parcel. In the cellar, priority is given to traditional pressing, gravity transfers and choices intended to preserve freshness. Blending and dosage are decided to enhance the wine’s natural balance.
Terroir and vineyards
The vineyard covers 14 hectares, divided into plots across the hills of Damery, Hautvillers, Fleury-la-Rivière and, notably, Cumières, a village classified Premier Cru in the Vallée de la Marne. The land is fragmented into numerous clos and parcels that provide diverse varietal expressions typical of the region.
