The winery

Boutique winery par excellence

The 7 hectares of vineyards of Champagne JM Goulard are located in the foothills of the "Massif de Saint Thierry". Damien Goulard considers the vineyard to be his garden. On the seven hectares of the house, each individual plot is cultivated with care. As his grandfather taught him, he knows how to plough the land, loosen the soil and aerate it. He has the stamina to spend the whole day tying the antlers of the vines, because he knows how important a noble raw material is for the production of champagne.

100% sustainability

Rooted in the family history, sustainable management has long played a central role at JM Goulard Champagne. After taking over, Damien integrated winemaking in oak barrels and paved the way for sustainable winemaking methods. Today, JM Goulard produces wine according to strict ecological guidelines.

The location

UNESCO World Heritage Site Champagne

The winery is located in the foothills of the "Massif de Saint Thierry", about 20 minutes by car from the city of Reims. The soils of the 7 hectares of vineyards here are characterized by sand, clay and limestone. The climate of Champagne is semi-continental with oceanic influences. Annual rainfall is quite moderate at 650 to 700 mm. The average sunshine duration is 1,650 hours, a quarter of which falls in July and August. In summary, the climate of Champagne results in the grapes ripening quite slowly, which promotes the freshness and finesse of the champagne.
