The name refers to the two different colored veins of marl that run through the vineyard, which give it a striped look. These vines are located in the nearby town of Noé-les-Mallets, which is especially known for producing great Chardonnay. The wine is aged in oak barrels and then kept on the lees for six years prior to release, and like all the Champagnes from Piollot, it’s disgorged non-dosé.

Tasting Note: From the limestone-rich soils of Polisot comes the second blanc de blancs  and only wine made from 100% chardonnay. This combines the warmth of the vintage with remarkable precision. Aromas of Meyer lemon, crisp pear, white peach, and spring flowers are layered with notes of crushed oyster shell, toasted hazelnut, and fresh brioche. The palate is energetic and finely textured, driven by vibrant acidity and a pronounced mineral core. Disgorged without dosage, it finishes long, saline, and laser-focused, revealing both the purity of the fruit and the unmistakable imprint of its biodynamically farmed terroir.
