THE COMPANY

Ernest Monmarthe founded Champagne Monmarthe in 1930, and since then the family has lived and worked in Ludes, in the heart of the Reims hills. In 1990, Jean-Guy completed his studies in oenology and took over the management of the company from his father Guy. He continues to run it together with his wife Sandrine, and in 2021, with the arrival of Gauthier, there will be seven generations of Monmarthe! The vineyard covers 17 hectares, divided into 22 Premier Cru parcels, approximately 30% of which are planted with the three traditional grape varieties, all in the village of Ludes except for 2 hectares planted in Tassy. A small family-run maison where each champagne is produced exclusively from grapes harvested in the estate’s own vineyards, in full respect of the récoltant-manipulant tradition, with wines of character and elegance that, over time, express the terroir of the Montagne de Reims to the fullest through the multiple nuances of each individual champagne.
