Sébastien Mouzon is a talented young winemaker who is enamored by the work of Vincent Laval (who wouldn't be?). After taking over his family's domaine in Verzy, he immediately stopped using chemicals. He is now certified organic, and biodynamic as well. His passion and conviction is that the best Champagne is born in the soil. L'Angelique is 100% Chardonnay, from all of his plots of Chardonnay in Verzy.
