About this listen

Welcome to the final part of our mini series "Champagne: Meet the Growers", in which we introduce you to some amazing Grower Champagne Domaines. In this episode, we welcome Raphaël Piconnet to The Premier Cru, who is the head winemaker and vigneron at Domaine de Bichery located in the Côte des Bar.


We wanted to end the series by showing you a rising star in the region. Since releasing their first vintage in 2015, Domaine de Bichery has been gaining an incredible reputation and are one of a number of young Domaines in the Côte des Bar going from strength to strength and establishing the sub-region as one of the most exciting in Champagne.


On top of their sparkling cuvees, they also produce two brilliant Couteaux Champenois so in this episode we discuss:

  • The history of the Domaine
  • The impact of global warming on Champagne
  • The rise of Couteaux Champenois


We also taste two of the Domaine's wines on the podcast: La Source and their Couteaux Champenois Blanc.
