The vines of the property sprawl over more than 180 hectares of hillside in the heart of Champagne, surrounded by lush woods. Its property also abounds with a mix of varied architecture, with interior buildings constructed in the 1870s and modern structures, not forgetting historic residences, lodges and small manor houses that attest to the region's history and culture. Viticulture and the practice of oenology at each stage of the process are integral to the estate's style and prestige.

Discovering the wine region of Champagne

Champagne is the name of the world's most famous Sparkling wine, the appellation under which it is sold and the French wine region from which it comes. Although it has been used to refer to sparkling wines around the world - a point of controversy and legal wrangling in recent decades - Champagne is a legally controlled and restricted name. See the labels of Champagne wines. The fame and success of Champagne is, of course, the product of many Complex factors.

Yet there are three main reasons we can be reasonably certain of. First, the large bubbles, which distinguish it from less "exciting" wines. Second, the high prices that champagne commands, which give it a sense of exclusivity and uniqueness. Third, two centuries of clever marketing to a willing and very receptive consumer base.
