Interview with Mrs Ouriet-Pâture from the Champagne House Ouriet-Pâture:
"We had a very, very good team in the Trépail sector(Montagne de Reims), the harvest went wonderfully and the quota was there, it was not a foregone conclusion!!!!
In Ambonnay, we had to form an association in which we offered participants a daily night watch to prevent ill-intentioned people from stealing the crops.
It's worth remembering, however, that 2021 was a very complicated year for the whole Champagne region, given the bad weather we had to deal with. We had to be very reactive, doing more manual work to ventilate and aerate so as to have fewer damp hearths."
One thing's for sure: Champagne Ouriet-Pâture looks forward to seeing you in 2022 for the next harvest!
