He began to cultivate vines and sold the entire harvest, as did his son.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eBut by 1919, his grandson, Camille Péters, decided to vinify the estate's first vintage of champagne. The financial crisis of 1929 further convinced him to continue down the path of in-house bottling. \u003cbr\u003eAfter his death in 1944, his five children divided the family vineyard equally (0.99 ares). Among them was his son Pierre Péters, who sold his first vintage in 1947. In 1959 he bought the land from one of his sisters. His descendants, François Péters and his son Rodolphe worked during the second half of the 20th century to expand the vineyard of the Pierre Péters estate. \u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince 2008,  Rodolphe Péters has led his family estate and has largely consolidated his family's holdings. Today, he oversees 20 hectares of vines predominantly in the grand cru of Les Mesnil-sur-Oger where 45 of their 63 parcels are located.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd while the Péters name is heavily identified with the village of Le Mesnil,\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eonly one wine - the single vineyard Les Chêtillons is pure Mesnil with the others being grand cru blends from the villages of Oger, Avize, Cramant and Chouilly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLes Chétillons, located just southeast of the village of Le Mesnil is the source of the domaine’s most iconic cuvée. The family acquired 3 plots here in 1930 and has been making this single-vineyard champagne since 1971. Its depth relies on the interplay between three different parcels within the vineyard, with vines ranging from 70 to between 35\/35 years. Dosage is between 3.5-4.5 g\/L.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThe 2018 Brut Cuvée Spéciale Les Chétillons is a super-classic Peters Champagne. Bright and beautifully sculpted in the glass, the 2018 sizzles with tension. Lemon peel, chalk, mint, dried flowers, sage and oyster shell are some of the many notes that emerge over time. I especially admire the energy here. An archetype for Mesnil.
