DESCRIPTION
Aged in different ways, our Ratafias Champenois explode with quality, respect for their terroirs, their grape varieties, and bring pleasure at all levels.
The “FINESSE” cuvée is made only with champagne grapes from the Chardonnay grape variety. Chardonnay is the typical grape variety of champagne which brings finesse to the cuvées of which it is part of the blend. For Champagne Dumangin J. Fils, the Chardonnay matured on chalk in the Montagne de Reims is a particularly strategic contribution to generate finesse, acidity and length in the mouth for the house’s vintages. “Ratafia Champenois” is a protected geographical indication. it proudly bears the name of its region and makes an important contribution to its terroir and its quality history..

THE STORY OF RATAFIA
Ratafia Champenois is a protected geographical indication. it proudly bears the name of its region and makes an important contribution to its terroir and its quality history. A subtle blend of selected musts from pressing Champagne and fine Champagne, this 16-22% spirit is a marvel of colours and aromas. Its history can be traced back to the time of the conquest of the Americas, when participants had to keep as much vitamins as possible to avoid diseases contracted during these long boat trips. After the turf wars, the drink was used to ``ratify`` peace, hence its iconic name.
