Geoffrey Delouvin is the 10th generation vigneron of Famille Delouvin. His 7-hectare estate sits exclusively on the Cru de Vandières, in the heart of the Marne Valley, where the parcels — mostly old vines — are planted on south / southeast‑facing slopes across a mosaic of soils: argilo-limestone, flush chalk, sand, and clay. The vineyard is dominated by Pinot Meunier, to which the family dedicates exceptional care and devotion.

In the vineyard, pragmatism meets experience. Each plot is unique, and the knowledge passed down through ten generations of Delouvin winemakers guides every decision. Respect for the terroir and soils is paramount: no herbicides, no deep plowing, no insecticides, no anti-rot treatments, and no chemical fertilizers — only composted manure to nourish the soil’s microbiology. Biodiversity and old-vine preservation are carefully maintained through mass selection, ensuring the estate’s heritage thrives in every bottle.

In the cellar, Geoffrey follows a non-interventionist approach. Malolactic fermentation is neither forced nor blocked, and sulfur doses are kept under 35 mg/L. The Non-Millésimés draw depth and consistency from a Soléra system initiated in 1992, blending each harvest to maintain harmony and expression. Disgorgement is done by hand, with homemade liqueurs for the Bruts and dosage precisely matched for the Natures.

This meticulous attention to vineyard and cellar translates into wines that are expressive, site-driven, and unmistakably Delouvin. Every bottle reflects history, place, and care, where the skill of the vigneron and the voice of the terroir come together seamlessly. Beyond the technical mastery, Geoffrey’s passion, humility, and curiosity shine through, making him not just a winemaker, but a true artisan of Champagne.
