To understand the Champagne Benoît Cocteaux’s philosophy, we have to come back on several skilled wine-growers’ generations. Families motivated by the same desire: the desire to reveal something. Reveal terroirs, reveal grape varieties and extraordinary wines. To do that, we must be in love with our earth. Be on the field every day and face hazards that Mother Nature imposes to us.

Seeking
excellence
We belong to the Vignerons Indépendants (Independent winemakers of France) trade association. For us, working our vineyard with a view to preserving it is essential. Preserve Nature, preserve the soils, preserve a heritage. This is the key of our family vine-growing. We are craftspersons. We create a natural and living product. Powerful, pure and genuine cuvées. Tasting our champagnes is catching a part of our history. The Champagne Benoît Cocteaux history.
A terroir of
Excellence
Hélène and Benoît work an exceptional estate covering more than 200 kms, from the Coteaux du Sézannais (Montgenost), including the Côte des Blancs (Cramant and Chouilly), the Vallée de la Marne (Cerseuil) and the Côte des Bars (Verpillières-sur-Ource).
The balance right
The plot selection is at the heart of the wine-making process to reveal all the potential of its terroir. To get perfectly ripe grapes, Hélène and Benoît follow up each plot individually before the harvest.
The beginning of a great history
Since five generations, our family estate has been perpetuating a style, of which precision, elegance and balance are the keywords. Tasting our champagnes is catching a part of our history. The Champagne Benoît Cocteaux history.
