A seated Champagne pairing lunch in New York City with Dominique Moreau, Rose Piollot, and chef Nathan Fallowfield at Mitsuru.
Marie-Courtin & Piollot Lunch is a multi-course seated Champagne pairing lunch in New York City, organized as part of La Fête du Champagne New York City 2026 Program. The format centers on single-vineyard, single-variety cuvées paired with a bespoke tasting menu at Mitsuru, a restaurant on West 4th Street.
The wine side brings together Champagne Marie-Courtin and Champagne Piollot, both tied to Polisot. Dominique Moreau created Marie Courtin in 2005 in Champagne’s Côte des Bars and works biodynamically, without commercial yeasts in vin clair or bottle, with cuvées built around one grape, one parcel, and one vintage. Roland Piollot is described as a fifth-generation winegrower whose cuvées focus on single vineyards and single varieties from Polisot.
The published wine list includes Marie-Courtin Efflorescence 2019 en magnum, Piollot Colas Robin 2018 and 2010, Marie-Courtin Manigance Extra Brut 2021 and 2018, Marie-Courtin Présence 2022 and 2016, Piollot Les Protelles 2020 and 2019, Marie-Courtin Concordance 2020, and Marie-Courtin Ratafia 2020. The exact wines and vintages are subject to change.
The featured guests are Dominique Moreau, founder and winemaker of Champagne Marie-Courtin; Rose Piollot, winemaker at Champagne Piollot; and chef Nathan Fallowfield. Rose and Nathan have created a hospitality experience at the estate pairing Marie-Courtin and Piollot wines with seasonal food, and Nathan is set to craft the tasting menu for this New York lunch.
La Fête du Champagne organizes the event. It takes place on Friday, October 16, 2026 at 12:00 PM EDT, and tickets are priced at $550 + tax.
