Champagne Domaine Vincey Endogène Tirage au Mout Oger Grand Cru 2021 represents the culmination of Florence and Quentin Vincey’s craftsmanship, reflecting their pursuit of a champagne in which terroir speaks for itself. This wine is created naturally, without added sugar, using the extremely rare “Tirage au Mout” method, where the second fermentation in bottle is initiated with fresh grape must rather than sugar. The name “Endogène” (meaning “born from within”) perfectly expresses the philosophy behind this wine.
The aromatic profile is refined and multilayered: lemon zest, white grapefruit, green almonds, and wet stone, followed by subtle notes of brioche, smoke, and sea salt.
On the palate, the champagne is precise yet silky, combining vibrant acidity with a saline, chalky texture. The finish is long, pure, and distinctly mineral, leaving a lasting impression of elegance and freshness.
The Chardonnay grapes are grown on the slopes of Oger Grand Cru, where limestone and chalk soils give the wine its firm structure and unmistakable maritime elegance. Fermentation takes place with native yeasts, partly in oak barrels and partly in stainless steel, followed by 4–5 years of aging on fine lees.
Best served at a temperature of 8–10 °C. Pairs well with fresh oysters, lemon sea urchin tartare, or white fish with beurre blanc sauce.
“Domaine Vincey” is a Grower Champagne estate located in the Grand Cru village of Oger, in the Côte des Blancs region. The producer focuses primarily on expressing the character of ‘Chardonnay’, aiming to reveal the identity of this chalk-rich terroir through individual plot vinification and a minimal-intervention approach.
The estate’s champagnes reflect the characteristics of Oger – pronounced minerality, vibrant acidity, structure, and ageing potential. The focus is not only on texture, but also on expressing the identity of each vineyard plot, vintage, and place of origin.
The Vincey family’s viticultural roots in the Oger area date back to the beginning of the 20th century. The modern identity of the estate began to take shape in 2014, when Florence and Quentin Vincey took over the management of the family vineyards and started to develop their own Grower Champagne philosophy.
The estate follows organic and biodynamic viticultural principles. The main focus is placed on soil vitality, natural vine balance, and preserving the individuality of each vineyard plot. Synthetic herbicides and chemical fertilisers are avoided in vineyard management.
Each important vineyard plot is vinified separately, indigenous yeasts are used for fermentation, and the wines are often bottled with minimal intervention – without filtration or with only light filtration – in order to preserve the natural texture and terroir expression.
The estate’s main focus is ‘Chardonnay’ from the Oger Grand Cru terroir. The champagnes are characterised by precise structure, chalk-driven minerality, and a restrained aromatic profile.
Blanc de Blancs champagnes express the typical Côte des Blancs character: citrus fruits, white flowers, chalky notes, and subtle saline nuances. Extended ageing on lees provides additional texture and complexity.
Millésime champagnes are produced from a single vintage, allowing the character of each year to become more evident. Longer ageing brings additional aromatic depth, revealing notes of mature citrus fruits, nuts, brioche, and subtle spice nuances.
The champagnes are aged on lees for several years, often beyond the minimum requirements of the region, gaining greater texture, depth, and complexity.
Oger is one of the 17 villages in Champagne classified as Grand Cru. This Côte des Blancs terroir is renowned for its chalk-rich soils, which provide ‘Chardonnay’ grapes with freshness, minerality, and long ageing potential.

“Domaine Vincey” champagnes are focused on terroir precision – reflecting not only the character of the grape variety, but also the influence of Oger Grand Cru’s landscape, soils, and individual vintages.
