Landreville is a village in the Aube in the Ource Valley, 7 km from Bar-sur-Seine, in the Barséquanais, the western part of the Côte des Bar, on the Route touristique du Champagne. It borders, among others, Celles-sur-Ource, Ville-sur-Arce, Loches-sur-Ource and Gyé-sur-Seine. The name appears in 1080 in a charter of Mores Abbey. In the Middle Ages, the village lay on the border between the royal domain and Burgundy, and in 1435, under the Treaty of Arras, it passed to the Duke of Burgundy along with the County of Bar-sur-Seine.
The vineyard is among the largest in the Barséquanais: 283 ha (UMC) across 73 winegrowers, with Pinot Noir 230.1 ha (81%), Chardonnay 39.3 ha (14%) and Meunier 8.4 ha (3%), on Jurassic slopes of Kimmeridgian limestone. Landreville is an “other cru”: a village in the AOC Champagne outside the Grand Cru and Premier Cru designations. Its red wines, however, had an ancient reputation: in 1816 André Jullien placed them in the second class of the Aube. The UMC record notes vineyards belonging to the Veuve Cheurlin house (J. Arnoult); the Church of Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption retains its 12th-century bell tower.
Charles Dufour is based in Landreville: we offer his Coteaux Champenois and Champagne from several villages. See the map.
