L'Ecureuil Tome II Gaspard Brochet

About the Producer Gaspard Brochet

Gaspard, the son of winemaker Vincent Brochet, decided to leave his job as a graphic designer in 2014 to study oenology. In 2016, he took over the family business, inheriting an estate with a 70-year history of producing outstanding Champagnes. Thanks to his unique expertise and this substantial heritage, Gaspard now tends to his more than three hectares of vines, located in Sacy, Écueil and Villers aux Nœuds, in the heart of the iconic terroir of the Montagne de Reims. Vincent recognises the environmental issues at stake and is keen to preserve the land he loves so much, and has a sustainable and balanced approach to viticulture. The vineyard holds the French Haute Valeur Environnementale (High Environmental Value) certification. He has banished all chemical fertilisers and weedkillers from his vines, and has begun converting to organic viticulture in 2021. The Champagnes produced by Gaspard Brochet, some of which bear his name and others his father’s, are energetic and elegant, reflecting the terroir of the Champagne region.
