Champagne Romain Tribaut
Champagne Romain Tribaut
[Where tradition meets the modern]
In the 1930s Roger Tribaut took charge of the Dizy and Épernay vineyards of the Champagne house Lanson, a post he held until his retirement in 1965.
Throughout those years he also ran the family vines inherited from his father Léon, buying land on the slopes of Romery to enlarge the holding.
The house has since passed to Romain and Cindy Tribaut. Since 2015 they have committed themselves to working in wood, much as grandfather Roger once did, building their Champagne around that relationship with the barrel — and drawing from it a complex, honest, old-fashioned depth of flavour.
The fruit comes from Grand Cru Chardonnay in the Côte des Blancs, Meunier from the Vallée de la Marne, and Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims.
The Chardonnay gives the wines their golden gleam and sense of scale; the Meunier brings all the charm of the Marne.
Made with respect for the bond between people and vines, each vintage is a conversation between the years a vine has lived and Romain's own instinct — unaffected, unadorned, and unmistakably consistent in character.
