Champagne Pierre Brocard
Young Thibaud Brocard is the fifth generation of Champagne Brocard Pierre to lead the domaine near the village of Celles-sur-Ource in Côte de Bars in the easternmost part of the region.
This is very much a family business with mom, pops, and the two children doing all the work in both vineyard, cellar, and in the office. Piero Busso is still at the helm of the domaine that he established in the early 1950s.
Together with his son, Pierguido, they are doing extraordinary things in the slopey hills of Barbareso. The domaine is based in Neive and produces primarily Nebbiolo from the Albesani vineyard. They also own parcels in the beautiful Gallina vineyard and Treiso’s San Stunet near Treiso. In all of the vineyard, most of the work is done manually; grapes are harvested by hand in small crates and destemmed before fermenting on indigenous yeasts in either stainless steel tanks or wooden casks, called “tine.”
Maceration is long and slow, for some wines up to 60 days. Wines are aged in large, neutral oak casks, called “botti”, and bottled unfined and unfiltered.

Maxime Graillot, a larger-than-life vigneron (and son of legendary winemaker Alain Graillot), has the same innovative and forward-thinking spirit as his father. In 2004, to cement the family’s name in the Northern Rhône, Maxime managed to acquire quite a few vineyards situated in the Beaumont-Monteux commune of Crozes-Hermitage.
Filippo makes wines with his wife Nancy on the Italian island of Sicily in shadow of the smoldering volcano, Etna. They met in Belgium many years ago while working in the restaunrant industry. Now, they farm around 4ha on a plot of around 20.
