Champagne Hugues Godmé, the Terroirs: The Essence of Wealth and Diversity

Champagne, on the northern limit of vine cultivation, forges the typicity of these terroirs through rigorous climatic conditions. The union of natural elements and meticulous work reveals the uniqueness of the plots, imposing the personality of each champagne wine. With 40 plots spread across 4 villages in the Montagne de Reims, each Hugues Godmé Champagne expresses the subtlety and strength of the terroirs from which they come. The diversity of exposures, types of soil, and grape varieties creates a vast sensory panel, from the sensuality of the chalk lands of Villers-Marmery to the power of Pinot Noirs on the terroirs of Verzenay and Verzy.
