Champagne Jean-Claude MOUZON is, before all, guided by a duo, that of Frédérique and Cédric Lahémade. As a judo fan, Cédric met Frédérique at the dojo; she was also keen on this martial art. Rivals on the tatami, Frédérique and Cédric fall in love, turning a hand-to-hand fight into a heart-to-heart relationship. By uniting, their wish to work surrounded by Nature becomes real. They gradually join Jean-Claude on the estate and become the current happy makers of Jean-Claude Mouzon champagnes. Since then, they have moved forward little by little, together in life and in the vines too.
The name of the village of Champagne Jean-Claude MOUZON, Verzenay, means « to the North ». This Great Growth village of the Champagne area, perched on the Montagne de Reims, looks down the Vallée de la Vesle. The Mount Sinaï, rising to 277 m of altitude, protects the houses of the village and its vines by confining hot air.
Inheriting and running a terroir classified Great Growth implies a daily interest in its quality and turning it into champagnes. 43 small plots in Verzenay, Verzy, Beaumont-sur-Vesle and Mailly-Champagne make up the vineyard of Champagne Jean-Claude MOUZON. Their surface enables them to do everything by themselves: luxury craftsmanship! Cédric and Frédérique observe their Great Growth grapes. They practice sustainable vine cultivation (environmental-friendly) acknowledged by the French Ministry of Agriculture through the logo “HVE”. Read more
