Francis founded his estate with his daughter, Delphine, in 2010, following a disagreement with his siblings about whether to continue operating the old family estate using conventional agriculture. Left with only 3 hectares of their own, the pair now manage the property biodynamically. The resulting wines are incredibly expressive, a delight to drink and have already garnered a strong reputation for being amongst the best grower-producer Champagnes on the market. Francis retired in 2017 after a 50+ year career, and now Delphine is in charge of the estate.
