Founded in 1923 by a Russian princess who fled Moscow and its revolutionary unrest for Epernay, Louis Barthélémy was acquired in 2002 by Jean-Barthélémy Chancel, the youngest champagne négociant manipulant of his generation.
Jean-Barthélémy Chancel was trained in vinification by his father, and worked for more than ten years on the production of ultra premium individualistic wines on the exceptional terroir of Château Val Joanis, in the Luberon.
He now strives to remain true to our family’s uncompromising quest for quality, while preserving the unique Louis Barthélémy legacy.
Located in Aÿ, amidst Champagne’s best known vineyards, the house benefits from rich and diversified grape buying contracts in a large number of crus. Of a viticultural background, we strive to obtain the best from Champagne’s diversified terroirs in order to vinify great wines, which in turn will enable us to produce great champagnes.
The house has a very distinct and elegant wine style, characterised by a small dosage but a long on lees ageing period.
In order to symbolize our uncompromising quest for exceptional wines, we have named each cuvee after a precious stone.
A brilliantly clear and luminous wine. The flavours are balanced between notes of red fruit and a strong minerality. The structure is powerful yet smooth. A crisp and complex champagne.
