CHAMPAGNE THIÉNOT CHAMPAGNE, FRANCE
With almost 20 years’ experience as a wine broker in Champagne, Alain Thiénot had acquired an in-depth knowledge of the vineyards, having scoured the hillsides for the rare & exceptional, in the constant quest for wines that revealed the finest expressions of each Cru vineyard. It was from this that he sowed the seeds of a dream, to establish his own Champagne House, which takes real nerve when the first were begun more than three centuries ago. In 1985, he developed his project & launched his eponymous Champagne House; a precision-managed adventure & a challenge that paid off, Champagne Thiénot has found its place among the greatest Champagne Houses, favoring quality over quantity & creativity over traditionalism.
