Damery, Champagne

Benjamin Choppin is the last vigneron of a family that boasts 7 generations of Champagne producers, and rigorously leads the Domaine Maurice Choppin together with his wife Marine.

We are located in Damery, a few km from Epernay, in the heart of the Marne Valley and we are talking about an absolutely virtuous maison, producing in a sustainable, organic and HVE3 (High Environmental Value) certified way.

The desire is to preserve on the one hand a biodiversity, that of Champagne, often humiliated and mistreated, through a massive presence of trees, meadows and wild flowers; on the other, the purity and identity of the wines through limited interventionism.

Powerful and tense wines are born, round and balanced, which cannot fail to seduce even the most demanding Champagne lovers
