Philosophy

Champagne Michel Genet Chouilly Grand Cru Chardonnay

Chouilly is located just below Epernay and is one of only 17 Grand Cru municipalities in the Champagne region, and this only for champagnes made from pure Chardonnay (Blanc de Blancs). With over 500 hectares of classified vineyards, it is the largest municipality in the appellation. The winery was founded in the 1960s by Michel Genet. Today it is his 2 sons and daughter, Vincent, Antoine and Agnes, who work the vineyards and led this winery into the 21st century. They call themselves “Manufacteurs de Grands Crus” where their entire concept is summed up in this one word “Manu-facture = Fait Main”. All vineyards are located in Chouilly and Cramant and are processed by hand with respect for nature (lutte raisonnée), harvested manually, vinified separately and picked by it's own staff. They guarantee this way a very high-quality champagne that easily exceeds most branded champagnes and for which they were awarded a gold medal as the best champagne of the fair at the Concours de Bruxelles 2019.
