Champagne Gondé-Rousseaux is a small family estate, founded in 1976 by Edith Rousseaux and Didier Gondé, parents of the current winemaker Florian Gondé. They run a little less than 4 hectares on the commune of Taissy, close to Reims. The estate works organic and biodynamic : the wines are produced as naturally as possible. A Very low amount of sulfites is added to the wines, and no non-natural products are added. Their philosophy: 100% single vineyard, and micro-vinification!
