Champagne Guy Michel & Fils 'Paris Folies' Brut Millésimé 2000
Vintage Character
Guy Michel & Fils Paris ‘Folie’ Brut Millésime 2000 is composed primarily of Chardonnay (around 70%), with Meunier (about 20%) and Pinot Noir (roughly 10%), grown in the chalk and limestone soils around Pierry, south of Épernay. The 2000 vintage in Champagne was warm and generous, producing ripe fruit and approachable wines with supple texture and good aging potential.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
In the glass, this cuvée shows a golden hue with fine, persistent bubbles and aromas of baked apple, citrus zest, brioche, honey, and roasted nuts. The palate is rounded and creamy, with layers of orchard fruit, candied citrus, and toasted almond, balanced by a mineral backbone and lively acidity that carry through to a long, elegant finish. Its richness and maturity make it a versatile partner for lobster with beurre blanc, roast chicken with morels, or aged Parmesan, where the Champagne’s nutty, evolved notes complement the depth of the food.
Winery Background
Founded in 1959 by Guy Michel, though the family’s Champagne roots date back to 1847, the estate has been passed down through five generations in Pierry. Today, Guy Michel & Fils farms around 20 hectares across ten villages, with a strong emphasis on Pinot Meunier, complemented by Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The domaine is known for its philosophy of late disgorgement and extended lees ageing, often releasing wines only after seven years or more in bottle to ensure depth, complexity, and longevity. Vinification is carried out in stainless steel tanks with indigenous yeasts, and dosage is carefully adjusted to highlight balance rather than sweetness. This thoughtful approach has earned the house a reputation for producing Champagnes that combine generosity with refinement, with the Paris ‘Folie’ cuvée standing out for its expressive fruit and layered maturity.
