The Jean Velut Estate is a prestigious winemaking establishment located in the throbbing heart of Champagne, France. It is the fruit of the passion and dedication of Jean Velut, who has devoted his life to refining his art of winemaking. Rooted in Montgueux, a unique terroir renowned for its extraordinary ability to produce the highest quality Champagne wines, the estate holds a prime place in the French viticultural panorama. The Jean Velut Estate spans over an area of 7 hectares, a rich and fertile soil enjoying an idyllic climate for the cultivation of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, the three noble grape varieties which are the cornerstones of all Champagne wine. Meticulous care is given to each vineyard, with a philosophy of enhancing nature and respecting the ecosystem. The house produces wines every year that stand out for their elegance, finesse and freshness. The harvests are mainly carried out by hand in order to preserve the quality of the grapes.

The use of vats and barrels allows for optimal maturation of the wine while respecting its original identity. From the exceptional Blanc de Blancs to the prestigious Millésimé, the wines of the Jean Velut Estate are a reflection of an exceptional terroir and unique know-how. The fine and delicate bubbles of these champagnes express all the purity and richness of the Montgueux terroir. But what makes the reputation of the Jean Velut Estate is not only the quality of its wines. It's also its warm and friendly welcome that delights visitors.
