Louise Brison: a family story told through a library of vintages

In the cellars of Louise Brison, you can choose a Champagne back to the 1997 harvest. Alongside it are other carefully preserved vintages, each with its own character and story. The family does more than produce vintage Champagne: for decades, they have patiently built a library of harvests, a selection of which is now available to order. For lovers of mature Champagne, this offers a rare opportunity to explore several vintages from a single estate, including wines in magnum. The collection reveals how the seasons have varied and the wines have evolved. Behind it are the decisions that shaped the estate: buying land, beginning to make their own Champagne, and setting bottles aside for years of ageing. At Louise Brison, the story of the vintages is inseparable from the story of the family.

Guided by Delphine Brulez, we explored her sunlit vines to observe the current viticultural work and closely monitor the evolution of the vegetation. We had the privilege of admiring an exceptional winegrowing landscape, shaped by a remarkable diversity of soils. In 2024, the estate commissioned an in-depth study of its terroirs to better understand the specificities of each plot.
