The history of Union Champagne owes much to the past generations of growers who, even before the group was created, were dedicated to preserving their exceptional terroirs. From the grower, passionate about his grapes, to the cellar master, the slow genesis of a great champagne is ensured. Altogether, over 2,000 people participate in this great adventure.
De Saint Gall's main source of pride is its incomparable position on the famous Côte des Blancs, the most elegant of the Champagne terroirs. The Premiers and Grands Crus villages are spread out over a superb chalky terroir that enables the vines to burrow their roots deep down into the soil.
Here, Chardonnay is king, reaching its most sublime expression and producing racy, long-living champagnes.
Four of the most renowned Montagne de Reims villages complete the vineyard holdings, bringing their roundness and unctuosity to certain cuvées in the range.
The terroir is the first component in the alchemy that goes into making champagne. Maintaining this heritage is above all a question of respecting the traditions that have made this terroir unique in the world.
It is also about integrating new technical advances, such as “viticulture raisonnée”, monitoring the parcels, and controlling vineyard health.
