"When I create a cuvée, I like to listen to my intuition and bring out the soul of the wine."
HÉLÈNE'S WINES
All cuvées come from old vines aged 45 years on grassy soils. In the fourth generation, Hélène Beaugrand now manages her estate on 3 hectares. She attaches great importance to family heritage and craftsmanship while leaving a large part of spontaneity in her creations. Currently, the estate produces about 20,000 bottles and offers six different champagnes.
Le Grand carré
Blanc de Blancs - Extra Brut
Le Grand carré
With each harvest, there is a significant disparity between the plots of old vines located at the bottom of the hill and those on the hillside. Le Grand Carré is a plot located at the bottom of the hill from which one can admire our magnificent grassy and wooded hillside. I harvest it at maturity first to retain the crispness, freshness, and fruity notes of the chardonnays.

Derrière la cabane
Blanc de Blancs - Extra Brut
Derrière la cabane
Situated halfway up the hillside, its south-facing exposure allows for harvesting well-gilded grapes at the end of the harvest. Offering aromatic power and a strong balance, the typicality of this Chardonnay allows for the creation of a powerful and refined exceptional cuvée. From this plot, I adore looking into the distance at the unique square tower of the Troyes Cathedral in the morning mist.
