Champagne Bauget-Jouette, a free and sincere family house at the heart of Epernay
Champagne Bauget-Jouette
A family house of Epernay since 1822, five generations. Around 10 hectares on the finest Champagne terroirs. Chardonnay majority, viticulture towards HVE, winemaking in Epernay. Precise, elegant and sincere champagnes.
Since 1822, Champagne Bauget-Jouette has written a patient history, generation after generation, at the heart of Epernay, the historic capital of Champagne. Here, time is not an enemy: it is an ally. Five generations of winegrowers have shaped a singular style, guided by the same compass: to let the terroirs speak, without make-up, with precision and emotion.
The estate today cultivates a vineyard of around 10 hectares, spread across the finest Champagne sectors. Each plot is known, observed, respected. Nothing is left to chance, but everything is left to the living.

Emblematic terroirs, worked like crus
The vines of the Bauget-Jouette house extend over a mosaic of renowned terroirs: the Coteaux Sud d'Epernay, the Cote des Blancs, the Marne Valley and the Sezannais. Names that make you dream, but above all soils that speak.
Some plots, such as Le Bignart, Le Cloitre or Les Grimprets, carry the imprint of the family history. Each named plot has its character, its tension, its generosity. The final blend is never a simple technical exercise: it is a search for harmony between well-asserted identities.
A balanced grape mix, faithful to the house's DNA
The vineyard rests on the three emblematic grapes of Champagne:
Chardonnay (around 50%), for freshness, finesse and light.
Pinot Meunier (around 40%), for fruit and energy.
Pinot Noir (around 10%), for structure and elegance.
This distribution gives birth to precise, readable champagnes, never heavy, where drinkability is never sacrificed to demonstration.
An attentive viticulture and an artisanal winemaking in Epernay
The house is committed to an environmentally respectful viticulture, with grass cover of the soils and the removal of chemical herbicides, notably glyphosate. The approach is demanding, concrete, oriented towards an HVE certification.
All the cuvees are vinified and aged in Epernay, in the historic cellars of the property. Partial ageing in barrels, the controlled use of reserve wines and the extended ageing times allow the wines to gain in texture, depth and serenity.
A range of characterful champagnes, conceived as a dialogue
The Bauget-Jouette range does not seek to please everyone. It seeks to strike true.
