Vineyard Info
The Mignon family comes from a line of wine-growers native from Mesnil-le-Huttier, a little hamlet of Festigny, a village located a few kilometres away from Epernay, the capital city of champagne. The Vallee de la Marne vineyard runs alongside Cote des Blancs, well-known for the quality of its Chardonnay. Champagne Charles Mignon has vines at the heart of the Great Growth village of Chouilly. Therefore all the quality and history of an old vineyard can be found in the House cuvees.
A line of wine-growers has preceded Bruno and Laurence Mignon, the creating couple of Champagne Charles Mignon. It is by transmission from mothers to daughters, from wives to husbands, from fathers to sons, that Champagne Charles Mignon today has the capacity to turn a moment into an unforgettable experience. With labour value as legacy, Laurence and Bruno united their fates, their taste for adventure and entrepreneurship. This is how Champagne Charles Mignon was born, in Epernay.
