From this winery
  • Start up year: 1776
  • Hectares: 10
Family winemakers since 1776, we carry on the necessary traditions of patience and traditional savoir-faire to produce fine Champagne. Today, three people lead our estate: Pascale, Philippe and Sébastien Mouzon. Within a 10-kilometre radius around our wine storehouse, we grow 10 hectares of vines on approximately 100 plots, which are spread mainly throughout four terroirs: 8 hectares in Verzy and the rest stretching into the areas of Verzenay, Ludes and Villers-Marmery. Seven grape varieties from the Champagne region perfect this diversity (Arbanne, Petit Meslier,Pinot gris, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Meunier, Pinot Noir et Chardonnay).

The chemistry between the soil, climate and vines naturally create Champagne from the terroir with distinctive and authentic characteristics.
