This tiny, 'why haven't I seen this before?,' project is the side hustle of Champagne's Fred Savart. 'Éphémère,' meaning ephemeral, actually doesn't quite fully express the here today, gone tomorrow spirit of the project.
Here's how it works. Savart starts by identifying vineyards around the region he'd be excited to work with. He produces a single, limited cuvée from these vineyard(s) and then moves on. No cuvée is repeated beyond a single year's production. There is one cuvée of 'Éphémère' per year, always ultra-limited in production.
