More About The Winery
Champagne Perrot-Batteux & Filles is a small, family-run grower estate in Bergères-lès-Vertus, at the southern end of the Côte des Blancs. Founded in 1985 by Maryline and Gervais Perrot with just a few hectares and a traditional press inherited from Jean Raulet, the domaine quickly established itself as a boutique producer of Chardonnay-driven Champagnes.
Economic challenges caused production to pause between 1999 and 2009, but the family legacy was revived with passion and energy by the couple’s daughters, Cynthia and Céline—hence the “& Filles” in the name.
Today, the estate farms about 6 hectares of vines, with 95% planted to Chardonnay, the emblematic grape of the Côte des Blancs. Annual production remains deliberately limited to around 25,000 bottles, ensuring meticulous care from vineyard to cellar.The Champagnes of Perrot-Batteux & Filles are marked by their purity, minerality, and elegant precision, reflecting both the chalk-rich soils of Vertus and the intimate, hands-on approach of a true grower family.
