Vaudemange

Vaudemange lies on the southeastern edge of the Montagne de Reims, next to Ambonnay, Trépail and Billy-le-Grand, along the canal from the Aisne to the Marne; Châlons-en-Champagne and Épernay are both about 19 km away. L'UMC places it in the Grande Montagne de Reims terroir. The name, Vallis Dominica in 1090, was spelled “Vaudemanges” until a 1999 decree, and the regulations still spell it that way.

The commune is mainly agricultural, with over 90% arable land; the vineyard is small, 34.9 ha for 35 winegrowers, but homogeneous: the parcels are between 119 and 145 meters, with an average slope of 7%, and face almost entirely south and southwest. Chardonnay covers 83%, Pinot Noir 17%. Chardonnay, writes the Comité Champagne, brings freshness and floral and citrus notes. L'UMC notes vineyards belonging to Mumm & Cie.

In the latest échelle des crus, Vaudemange was rated 95%, like Trépail and Villers-Marmery, and the regulations list it among the Premier Cru. The village is crossed by the Route touristique du Champagne; the church retains a 12th-century porch, and the GR14 trail runs along the canal.

At the moment, STELT has no Champagne from Vaudemange in its catalog; when we do, you will find them below. The village is on the map of Champagne.
