Allouchery-Perseval

Champagne Allouchery-Perseval is a family house at 11 rue de l'Eglise in Ecueil, a Premier Cru village on the Montagne de Reims about 10 km from Reims and 20 km from Épernay. The site says the vineyard has been worked by the family for four generations and signs off as Lucie, Daniel and Emilien Allouchery; Champagne de Vignerons lists 8 ha of Premier Cru vines, around 80% Pinot Noir, certified HVE and VDC since 2015, and about 55,000 bottles a year, while Gault & Millau splits the holding as 6 ha Pinot Noir, 1 ha Chardonnay and 1 ha Meunier. The estate's own pages mention only Pinot Noir, present in every cuvée, and Chardonnay, which the cellar page places in the Réserve and the Millésime and the range page also in both rosés. Soils are clay-limestone and sand on hillside and mid-slope parcels at the usual Champagne density of about 9,000 vines per hectare; farming is what the house calls viticulture raisonnée, with cover crops and soil cultivation as alternatives to chemical herbicide, certified HVE (Haute Valeur Environnementale) and Viticulture durable en Champagne. In the cellar the fruit goes through an 8,000 kg pneumatic press, settles for about 36 hours in small temperature-controlled steel tanks and ferments there; the non-vintage bruts get at least 20 months on lees and the Millésime at least four years, and dosages run from 7 g/l for the Tradition brut to 3.5 g/l for its extra brut version and around 2 to 3 g/l for the vintage extra bruts (the site lists the 2016 at 1.5 g/l, its tech sheet at 2). The range is the Tradition in brut and extra brut, a rosé, La Réserve, the Millésime and the Épilogue vintage rosé. The merchant Succul also lists a Champagne Emilien Allouchery label, created in 2023 as a récoltant-manipulant across Ecueil, Chamery and Villedommange with barrel- and amphora-aged limited cuvées from the fourth generation; the family site does not mention it.
