\Just south of the Cรดte des Blancs โ a subregion which actually is synonymous with chalk โ lies the Cรดte de Sezanne (in fact, some sources consider it a subregion of the Cรดte des Blancs). The Collet brothers work in the village of Fontaine-Denis, next to a forest of hundred-year-old oaks and on a hodgepodge of soil types.
In the villageโs north, pure white chalk blankets the hillsides. To the south, silex dominates. The Collets have been farming here since the 1700s, but it wasnโt until 2011 that Thomas, Florent, and their father Renรฉ began bottling wines under their own name, rather than selling off fruit to the big houses.
