History and Working Group

The wine region has three generations of craftsmen. Paulette and Daniel Riotton (second generation) passed on their passion for winegrowing in the traditional Champenois style, after which their children Patrice and Laurence took over the running of the business to safeguard its values and craftsmanship.

Vineyards and Terroir

The family cultivates its own vineyards with an environmentally conscious approach across two major regions:

Côte des Blancs: Known for its chalky soils.
Valley of the Marne: Where other terroir variations contribute to complexity.

The diversity in terroir and grape varieties enables them to produce harmonious and gastronomic champagnes in limited quantities.

Blanc de Blancs Millésime: Available in years such as 2008 (Prestige Extra Brut, ~€35.50) and 2012/2017 (Prestige, ~€29.50 - €64.50).
