‘The future of Champagne has already begun, but the best is yet it to come.’
– Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate
From a Champagne-producing family whose vinous history dates back more than a century, Michel Genet founded the business in 1965. His children now manage their 9-hectare estate, of which 7.6 hectares are planted with Chardonnay spread over 37 parcels! As with all of our producers, they pursue a natural and minimalist approach in the vineyard and the cellar.
Because of Chouilly’s proximity to the Marne River, the microclimate yields finessed, elegant and chalky Chardonnay-based Champagnes. The wines’ delicate richness makes them less austere and beautifully approachable in their youth.
