The property

Located in the heart of Aÿ, one of the 17 Champagne villages classified as Grand Cru, the Champagne Lallier House has been writing its history since its foundation by René Lallier in 1906. In constant pursuit of excellence, René-James Lallier, grandson of the founder, opens a new page in the history of the house by carrying out major modernization works of the winemaking tools from 1996. In 2004 Francis Tribaut, a passionate Champagne native who advises other great Champagne names, acquires the Lallier House.

The cuvées of the Lallier House are recognized for their finesse and their authentic expression of the richness of the most beautiful Champagne terroirs.
