Bernard Gautherot was persuaded to begin making his own wines by Selosse back in 2001, and the first release was in 2004. Based in Buxi\u00e8res-sur-Arce, he has 5.5 hectares in the C\u00f4te des Bar, which are farmed biodynamically (certified by Demeter since 1998). Average vine age is over 20 years, and the soils are mostly Kimmeridgian marl. All the base wines are fermented in oak. This wine, Fid\u00e8le, is their largest production, and like all the wines is based on a single year, with less than 10% reserve wine. It&#8217;s Pinot Noir, and first of all it is a wine; it&#8217;s a Champagne second. I found this wine on the list at the brill Westerns Laundry, and really enjoyed it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Champagne Vouette &amp; Sorb\u00e9e Brut Nature Fid\u00e8le NV France<\/strong><br \/>\n12% alcohol. Disgorged March 2016, no dosage. This has a bit of colour, and it&#8217;s not overly fizzy, enhancing its vinous qualities. Fresh with bright citrus, red cherries and a bit of apple. Complex and vinous with nectarine and glace cherry characters, and also a hint of mineral earthiness as well as lovely intensity and weight in the mouth. Quite beautiful. 93\/100<\/p>\n<p>Find this wine with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wine-searcher.com\/index.lml?referring_site=WAN\" target=\"_blank\">wine-searcher.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>GROWER CHAMPAGNE:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-agrapart-avizoise-extra-brut-grand-cru-2008\" target=\"_blank\">Agrapart Avizoise Extra Brut Grand Cru 2008<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-gimonnet-blanc-de-blancs-cuvee-cuis-1er-cru-nv\" target=\"_blank\">Gimonnet Blanc de Blancs Cuvee Cuis 1er Cru NV<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-vilmart-cie-grand-cellier\" target=\"_blank\">Vimart et Cie Grand Cellier NV<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/another-lovely-champagne-gatinois-ay-grand-cru-nv\" target=\"_blank\">Gatinois A\u00ff Grand Cru Brut Tradition NV<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-michel-arnould-grand-cru-brut-reserve-nv-france\" target=\"_blank\">Michel Arnould Grand Cru Brut R\u00e9serve NV<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/ulysse-collin-les-maillons-blanc-de-noirs-a-sensational-champagne\" target=\"_blank\">Ulysse Collin Blanc de Noirs Les Maillons Extra Brut NV France<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-eric-rodez-blanc-de-noirs-grand-cru\" target=\"_blank\">Eric Rodez Blanc de Noirs NV<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-pierre-peters-cuvee-du-reserve-blanc-de-blancs-grand-cru\" target=\"_blank\">Pierre P\u00e9ters Cuv\u00e9e du R\u00e9serve Blanc de Blancs Brut Grand Cru NV France<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-rl-legras-blanc-de-blancs-grand-cru\" target=\"_blank\">R&amp;L Legras Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru NV<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-bereche-et-fils-campania-remensis-extra-brut-rose\" target=\"_blank\">B\u00e9r\u00eache et Fils Campania Remensis Extra Brut Ros\u00e9 NV<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/a-great-lunch-at-social-wine-and-tapas-with-savart-and-pignan\" target=\"_blank\">Savart L\u2019Ouverture Premier Cru NV<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com\/wineblog\/champagne\/champagne-raphael-vincent-bereche-montagne-2004\" target=\"_blank\">Rapha\u00ebl &amp;
