Champagne house

Petitjean Pienne

Nestled in the renowned Grand Cru village of Cramant within the Côte des Blancs, the Petitjean-Pienne estate is celebrated for its exceptional Chardonnay. The estate's vineyards thrive on pure chalk soils, coupled with ideal sun exposure, yielding grapes that exhibit both ripeness and natural tension. This unique terroir contributes to wines that are bright, precise, and mineral-driven, capturing the essence of their surroundings. With a rich history spanning six generations, Petitjean-Pienne is a family-run estate dedicated to upholding Champagne traditions. Marie Petitjean now leads the estate after two decades working alongside her father, continuing the family's commitment to quality while infusing her own vision into the vineyard. Covering approximately 3.5 hectares, the estate maintains a hands-on approach, ensuring meticulous attention to each parcel. The hallmark of Petitjean-Pienne is its pursuit of purity and precision, primarily reflected in its elegant Blanc de Blancs offerings. Vinification in stainless steel preserves the wines' freshness, while selective barrel aging enhances their texture and complexity. The result is a range of Champagnes that are balanced, refined, and a true expression of their terroir, perfect for those who appreciate elegant and approachable wines.
