History
The family has cultivated its vineyard since
the XVIII century, but it was in 1947 that the brand «
Julien Chopin » was created.
Currently, Emmanuel Chopin (owner and Julien’s
grand-son) is one of the wine makers who want to
keep the traditional spirit of his house.
Our cellar is situated in Monthelon in the «Coteaux
Sud d’Epernay », at 6 kms from Epernay. Monthelon
is a typical Champagne village, in the heart of the
vineyard.
The vineyard is located where Meunier is the main
grape-variety, with the Chardonnay. Also, we possess
Pinot Noir, we have the three grape varieties to make
different Champagnes… The vineyard has an average
age of 22 years what allows the family to produce
grapes with an exceptional maturity. We use a
reasoned fight against diseases, that’s mean, we
treat only when it is necessary, in order to protect
the environment.
