Carbon was created and founded in 2011 by Alexandre Méa, the fifth heir to the Méa-Devavry family, which has been winegrowing and producing champagne for almost a century.
With Carbon, Méa aims to uphold the excellence of French craftsmanship, with each bottle being handcrafted and going through a 38-step process to create the carbon fibre exterior.
Sommelier Philippe Jamesse curated the tasting notes at the inception of the brand. According to him the carbon that covers the bottles merges with the carbon dioxide of the champagne bubbles, creating an interaction that nourishes and sharpens the wine.
Carbon uses three grape varieties for its Champagne; Grand Cru and Premier Cru for Chardonnay and Marne Valley for Pinot Noir.
