The Duménil family owns a 100% Premier Cru vineyard in the heart of the Montagne de Reims, on chalky soils in the great mountains (Chigny-les-Roses, Rilly-la-Montagne and Ludes) and clay-sand in the small mountains, the latter conducive to Pinot Meunier.

The first traces of the Duménil family in Champagne are attested in the 10th century, but it was really in 1874 that the Duménil Champagne House, created by Emile-Paul Duménil, was born. Today, Frédérique Poiret, her great-granddaughter, and Hughes, her husband, who also comes from a family of winemakers based on the beautiful terroir of Sacy, are at the head of the House.
