Champagne

Champagne Brigitte BEAUFORT is a family estate created in 2008 in Bouzy, by Brigitte Beaufort with the help of her two children Anne-Louise and Pierre-Herbert, who are still working by her side to this day. In fact, Brigitte doesn’t not come from the Champagne world; she became a proud champagne winemaker thanks to her incredible enthusiasm and perseverance!

First, she had to go back to school to graduate as a wine-grower. Her ambition also led her to reclaim fullownership of her late husband’s vines in 2008.

CŒUR DE GALIPPE

The originality of her story can be perceived in the champagnes of the domain. Brigitte has decided to produce only micro-cuvées from the Bouzy terroir, all of them vintage and aged for more than 7 years in the cellar.

Each year, Brigitte elaborates her vintages from a blank page in order to create the most beautiful wines. To this end, she selects the best grapes of her domain, the heart of her vines or the "CŒUR DE GALIPPE" as the village elders say. As a result, the production remains confidential: 6,000 bottles per year, whereas the size of the estate would allow for the production of 40,000.

To highlight this meticulous work, each bottle is numbered and the consumer will also find the composition of the blend of the cuvée, its date of disgorgement, its dosage and the total number of copies produced. Thus, champagne lovers - whether novices or real enthusiasts - will find the essential information for a transparent tasting.

Our Team

Brigitte BEAUFORT

Founder and Company Executive

“Every year, it feels like we’re starting from scratch all over again. My greatest pleasure is to discover each clear wine from our different plots, to taste them one after another, to start blending them without any preconception, to let my senses and my imagination run free. As time goes by, the vision I have for the vintage becomes more refined and I begin to catch a glimpse of the vintage or vintages I will produce. The most difficult thing afterwards is to be patient and wait so you can discover the cuvée I imagined 7 years ago!”

Pierre-Herbert BEAUFORT

Oenologist & Business Development

“My wish is to use the knowledge I acquired during my training as an oenologist to go further and further into the practice of precision and environmental-friendly viticulture. All this is dedicated to a single goal: reflecting the originality and richness of Bouzy’s terroir while producing with my mother the most possible natural champagnes!”

Anne-Louise BEAUFORT

Communication Manager

“I helped with the creation of our visual identity to make sure it suits us completely. I think that our logo, the four-leaf clover, or rather four hearts, and our slogan ‘COEUR DE GALIPPE’ enhance the work and the human adventure in which we have all embarked. I am convinced that the choice of a sober and elegant style mixed with a different color, full of pep, for each champagne reflects the confidential and exceptional character of the vintages my mother creates every year.”

ANGÉLIQUE GRUSON

Vineyard Technician

“Brigitte likes to say that I am her eyes since I spend my days in the vineyard. I make every possible effort to pamper the vines surrounding me. My ambition is to respect the vine’s vegetative cycle as much as possible, detecting its weaknesses and anticipating its needs to obtain best quality grapes during harvest time.”
