History
The Brimoncourt wines are born in Aÿ, the historical heart of the Champagne Region. Our anchorage is our promise, compelling us to bring a special care to the selection of vines and grapes when creating our wines. Our quest for excellence relies upon the access to the best Crus in Champagne. Our oenologist and his team have searched for a terroir oriented supply, to provide the house with the finest possible grape varieties in the long run.
In 2008, Alexandre Cornot woke up the dormant Brimoncourt to turn it into a bright and bold Champagne Maison. Not afraid to go off the beaten path, he quit his successful Lawyer career in New York and moved back to his home region to fulfil his vision. Setting up a champagne Maison requested 6 years of uninterrupted hard labor, willpower and many encounters, to find the right partners and build the trusting relationships that would ensure the longevity of the house’s style.
For three centuries, champagne has been synonym of fine tables, subtlety and inspired savoir-vivre... Brimoncourt is our tribute to these for-ever champagne values: elegance, independence, sharing and lightness.
At Brimoncourt, we are proud of developing a lively and creative brand with strong personalities who share a common vision and passion for this wonderful wine that is champagne. More than just a great wine, Brimoncourt is a way of being, inspired by free spirits: it is a chivalrous desire, a sophisticated response to convenience and boredom.
