CHAMPAGNE MICHEL HOERTER

Champagne Michel Hoerter: A Family Legacy Rooted in Terroir

In the heart of the Marne Valley, Champagne Michel Hoerter embodies the heritage of a passionate line of winemakers. For four generations, the family has cultivated its vines with pride and dedication. Today, Jean-Philippe Hoerter, great-grandson of founder Joseph, carries on the tradition alongside his wife Valérie.

On a vineyard carefully distributed around Passy-sur-Marne, the couple is committed to showcasing the richness of their terroir, composed mainly of Pinot Meunier, Pinot Noir, and Chardonnay. Their mission is clear: to produce champagnes that are authentic, sincere, and deeply connected to their land.

The Michel Hoerter estate is now certified HVE (High Environmental Value) and VDC (Sustainable Viticulture in Champagne). These labels reflect a strong commitment to responsible viticulture, respectful of the environment, biodiversity, and the natural balance of the vines.

Fresh, Generous, and Balanced Champagnes

Whether in the vineyard or the cellar, their work is driven by a quest for perfect balance between finesse, freshness, and fruit expression. Each cuvée is crafted with precision, highlighting the unique character of its grape varieties and plots.

The Michel Hoerter style stands out with gourmet, elegant, and approachable champagnes, perfect for any occasion:

• As an aperitif: to enjoy the liveliness and freshness of the Brut or Extra-Brut cuvées.
• At the table: to accompany poultry in sauce, grilled fish, or aged cheeses.
• With dessert: alongside red fruit pastries or tangy treats that pair beautifully with the estate’s fruit-forward champagnes.

Featured in numerous leading French wine guides, the Hoerter House appeals to both connoisseurs and curious newcomers alike, thanks to its meticulous, warm, and committed approach.
