It is the youngest of the big Champagne houses but has grown rapidly in its short history. It is now the number one selling champagne brand in France and third worldwide. The house was founded by Nicolas Feuillatte, a successful entrepreneur who had made his fortune in the coffee trade before turning his attention to champagne. He purchased 12 hectares of vineyards in the Champagne region and began producing his own champagne. The first bottles were released in 1976, and the brand quickly gained a reputation for quality.

Located in the village of Avize, it was founded in 1894 by Arthur Agrapart and the vines are among the oldest in the Côte de Blancs. The Agrapart family has always bottled its own Champagne but has only recently begun to made waves internationally, after decades as a favourite of connoisseurs in France. There are nine and a half hectares of predominantly Chardonnay vineyards, the vast majority of which are Grand Cru. To ensure the highest possible quality, production has always been kept at an artisanal level, with quantities of no more than 5,400 cases produced in any given year.
