Champagne JL Vergnon, five generations for almost two centuries in the same house which first housed the Regnault Frères house, one of whose descendants Elizabeth Regnault married a Vergnon.
From this union was born a son Jean-Louis who recreated in the 1950s the vineyard on Côte des blancs in Mesnil on Oger and who then gave this House the name Champagne JL Vergnon that we know today.
Alain, his son took up the torch in 1979 followed nowadays by Didier and Brigitte supported by a renowned oenologist Christophe Constant.
Located in the heart of the Côte des blancs, the Vergnon house elaborates its Champagnes from grapes harvested on its vineyards exclusively all located in Mesnil-sur-Oger, in Oger and in Avize, all classified Grand Cru and planted exclusively with Chardonnay grapes.
It is a champagne of assembly coming exclusively from the Grands Crus of Avize for the white and Mailly Champagne for the red.
