The Champagne La Passionnée Blanc de Noirs Extra Brut from Brisson-Lahaye is a sublime expression of elegance and complexity, made from carefully selected Pinot Noir grapes. Originating from the renowned Champagne region in France, this sparkling wine is distinguished by its bold character and surprising freshness.

Visually, it boasts an intense golden color and a very fine and persistent perlage, a sign of high quality and meticulous winemaking. On the nose, the bouquet is rich and enticing, with notes of ripe red fruits such as strawberry and cherry, hints of toasted almond, and slight touches of brioche, due to the long maturation on the yeasts.

On the palate, La Passionnée reveals a robust yet balanced structure, with a lively acidity that blends perfectly with the creaminess of the sip. The flavor is persistent, with a pleasant aromatic complexity that echoes the red fruits and nuances of dried fruit, culminating in a long and clean finish.

This Champagne is perfect as an aperitif, but it also has the structure to accompany richer dishes, such as roasts of white meat or flavorful fish. Its exceptional elegance also makes it ideal for special occasions, celebrating the most significant moments with great style.

The Brisson-Lahaye winery, with its dedication to quality and attention to detail, ensures that each bottle of La Passionnée Blanc de Noirs Extra Brut is a true expression of passion and the art of champagne making. A treasure to be discovered and enjoyed, it continues to amaze connoisseurs around the world.

Brisson-Lahaye – Winery in Champagne

Discover the story and wines of Brisson-Lahaye.

A family-run Champagne house based in Tours-sur-Marne, producing a range of cuvées sourced from vineyards across multiple Champagne terroirs.
Region: Champagne
Country: Francia
Grapes: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier
Winery located in Tours-sur-Marne. Vineyard of approximately 4 hectares spread across multiple terroirs. Produced as Récoltants-Manipulants, harvested by hand. Winemaking by grape variety and vineyard parcel; combined use of stainless steel and oak barrels. Maturation in cellars carved into the chalk, with around two years on the lees for many cuvées.
Winery history
The Brisson-Lahaye family gradually transformed a farm into a wine estate: Eliane Brisson married Joël Lahaye in 1981, and in the 1980s the couple joined the parents' business. In the 1990s they expanded their parcels and, in 1994, left the cooperative to become Récoltants-Manipulants, carrying out all stages of winemaking on the estate. Their daughter Laure joined the business in 2004 after studying viticulture and oenology; following Joël's retirement in 2021 and Eliane's in 2023, Laure now runs the family estate alongside her partner Matthieu Foissy.
Production philosophy
The approach emphasizes terroir expression and respect for biodiversity. Harvest is done by hand; the musts are vinified separately by grape variety and by parcel. Vinification takes place primarily in stainless steel, with part of the ageing in oak barrels. Malolactic fermentation is carried out for most cuvées, and the bottles are aged on the lees in a cellar carved into the chalk.
Terroir and vineyards
The estate is based in Tours-sur-Marne. Its vineyards are spread across several terroirs of the region — including the slopes of the Montagne de Reims, the Marne Valley and the southern slopes of Épernay — enabling the use of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier to create cuvées with varied profiles.
