Champagne Beatrix de Gimbres, the pure expression of the Rilly-la-Montagne Premier Cru
Champagne Beatrix de Gimbres
A family estate in Rilly-la-Montagne, a Premier Cru village of the Montagne de Reims. Certified HVE, VDC (2014) and Organic Agriculture (2021), a pioneer that abandoned insecticides back in 1995. Identity-driven champagnes from Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay, made without added SO2 at disgorgement.
In the heart of Rilly-la-Montagne, a village classified Premier Cru on the Montagne de Reims, Champagne Beatrix de Gimbres embodies the meeting of family tradition, environmental commitment and love of terroir. Under the inspired guidance of Beatrice Fagot, the estate shapes identity-driven, precise champagnes deeply rooted in their chalky soil.
A pioneering vision: protecting nature above all
Long before sustainable viticulture became a national issue, the estate chose to respect biodiversity. As early as 1995, Hubert Fagot, a visionary head of cultivation, completely abandoned insecticides. This bold gesture encouraged the return of natural helpers such as ladybirds, essential to the balance of the vineyard. In parallel, the estate adopted mechanical weeding, favoured microbial life and enriched the soils through the natural work of earthworms. This gentle approach creates a healthy, stable environment, capable of revealing grapes of great purity.
A certified and committed Premier Cru
Certified HVE and Sustainable Viticulture in Champagne back in 2014, then Organic Agriculture in 2021, the estate carries out every stage of the growing cycle with meticulous attention. Patient work that yields perfectly ripe grapes, the source of authentic champagnes.

A minimalist vinification to reveal the terroir
The Beatrix de Gimbres philosophy rests on aromatic transparency. The wines are made without added SO2 at disgorgement, allowing a purer, more alive and more mineral expression. The estate grows the three great Champagne varieties: Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay. On the chalky slopes of the Montagne de Reims, these varieties take on a singular dimension: tension, length, elegance and a very distinctive aromatic finesse. The estate's champagnes stand out for their balance, their luminous fruitiness and a vibrant minerality, the signature of Rilly-la-Montagne.
