Champagne, decoded. Parcelles is a detailed, data-driven explorer of Champagne: its 8,000+ vineyard parcels and the champagnes made from them. From the chalk beneath the vines to the bottle in your hand, Parcelles brings it all together in one beautiful app, on iPhone and iPad. EXPLORE THE REGION Browse the entire Champagne wine region on a detailed interactive map. Tap any parcel to see its name, village, and classification instantly. Search across every vineyard, village, producer, and champagne. On iPad, the map and a floating detail panel sit side by side. EVERY CHAMPAGNE Explore the whole champagne catalogue of the region, from the grandes maisons to the smallest growers. Browse, search, and filter by cru, style, dosage, and grape variety to reach exactly the bottle you have in mind. INSIDE EVERY BOTTLE Open each bottle up. See the blend grape by grape, trace any cuvee back to the exact parcels it draws from, and read a portrait of the wine. Producer profiles connect every house to the land behind it. SAVED, PINNED, MEASURED Keep vineyards, producers, and champagnes on your account, each with a note and in lists of your own. Drop a pin with a note anywhere on the map, and measure a row, a parcel, or the elevation along a line. KNOW YOUR TERROIR Every parcel analyzed with altitude, slope, aspect, sun exposure, soil composition, and rankings against all of Champagne. Understand what makes each vineyard unique. WHAT LIES BENEATH Geology overlays, contour lines, and hillshade reveal the land that shapes each vineyard. The vineyard diorama builds any parcel as a lit 3D model with its surroundings, and a sun you can move through the day and the year. Elevation profiles show the surface geology and the rock layers below, reconstructed from real boreholes. DECADES OF CLIMATE Growing degree days, rainfall, frost, and sunshine decade by decade since 1950. See how climate has shaped the vines, the best years and the worst, all-time records, village by village. Plus a Climate Outlook with CMIP6 projections through 2040. SEASON TRACKER Follow the growing season day by day. Growing degree days, a 3-day forecast, frost warnings, vintage archetype forecasts, and harvest predictions, village by village, updated daily.
