About the Producer Pierre Gerbais

Aurélien Gerbais, one of the leading winemakers on the Côte des Bars, is now the eighth generation to run the family estate in the village of Celles-sur-Ource. Tucked away in the southern Champagne appellation, a stone’s throw from Burgundy, the estate and its entire history stem from a wedding gift of less than one hectare of vines that Pierre Gerbais received which became his life’s work. He developed and nurtured his vines on over twenty different terroirs, including the oldest Pinot Blanc vine in Champagne, planted in 1904. Pascal Gerbais took over managing the estate, massively developing its commercial operations. Today, his son Aurélien runs the estate, which covers almost 17 hectares of vines, which he cultivates in keeping with the family tradition. The mosaic of plots and terroirs, cultivated using organic and biodynamic methods, allows the estate to produce superb Champagnes that reflect all the diversity of this exceptional terroir.
