Champagne JM Gandon – Les Pieces

Posted by Anthony Gomes on 12/07/2025

A family tribute in the heart of nature

Les Puces is the first vintage signed by Jean-Michel Gandon , a vibrant tribute to his father and the vines he planted in Branscourt , in the Marne Valley . This 100% Pinot Noir, vinified naturally, embodies the sincerity of a forgotten and preserved terroir.

Fermented in barrels, without fining or filtration, with indigenous yeasts and a minimum of sulfur, this champagne expresses all the finesse and depth of a free and lively Pinot Noir.
