Across 9.3 hectares and 40 unique plots, our vines—averaging nearly four decades in age—tell a story of tradition and innovation. While Pinot Noir reigns supreme in this celebrated region, our estate stands apart: one third of our vineyards are Chardonnay, first planted in 1948 by Henri Coutier. Today, we proudly continue this pioneering spirit, crafting blends of remarkable finesse, balance, and character.
Since 1981, Nathalie and René have guided the estate with passion and precision. In 2014, their son Antoine joined them, carrying forward the family’s vision as the fifth generation of R.H. Coutier Champagne.
Our philosophy is simple yet profound: "as little as possible." By minimizing intervention, we allow the purest expression of our terroir to shine. Every choice in the vineyard and cellar is made with respect for nature, reducing our impact on the living world around us. In 2020, we began our journey toward certified organic viticulture, reaffirming our commitment to sustainability and authenticity.
