Champagne Jacques Lassaigne

Champagne Jacques Lassaigne is based in Montgueux, a single chalk hill west of Troyes in the Aube, often called the Montrachet of Champagne for its pure, vibrant Chardonnays. Today the house is shaped by Emmanuel Lassaigne, one of the most independent winemakers in the region.

The focus is on Blanc de Blancs from Montgueux: an intense acid structure as the signature, plus aromatic depth through complete malolactic fermentation and a deliberately minimal dosage. This creates straightforward, terroir-driven Chardonnays that showcase the special limestone of this hill.
