Gourmands, lovers of their terroir, both technical and creative, Estelle, Jean-Bernard and their son Julien, present a range of Champagnes in the style of a gourmet House.
If Estelle wears an apron in the kitchen, Jean-Bernard and Julien also wear it in the "lab": a place where rigor and precision are required alongside pleasure and gourmandise.
Their champagnes are conceived in the manner of chefs: "Façon Brut", "Façon Soléra"... precious indications for understanding each of their cuvées.
