Eric Rodez, 'Cuvée Dosage Zéro' Champagne

Eric Rodez is based in the village of Ambonnay, where his family’s winemaking roots predate the French (or American) Revolution. Eric even served as the town’s mayor for six years. He worked nearby at Krug, before taking that experience back to his family’s winery, where he makes similarly-styled Champagne at a fraction of the price.

While all of these Champagnes are dry, this one is bottled with zero added sugar, leading to particularly crisp, mineral-driven flavors.
