A great tale written in Champagne’s chalk since 1804
To ensure optimal maturity, the house conceals a real treasure "an underground old chalk quarry", operated in medieval times to supply stone for the construction of houses and churches.
This magnificent Gallo-Roman chalk pits 30 meters underground, which form part of the Coteaux, Houses and Cellars of Champagne inscribed on the
UNESCO World Heritage List was then used for winemaking purposes by the owners of the famous
Duval-Leroy house.
The galleries (representing a storage capacity of 2 million bottles) are now used as cellars for the best Balincourt vintages. It insure our Champagne to be stored safely and at a constant temperature (10 ° C) and humidity. Elaborated with the same high standards of the greatest champagnes, this range is distinguished by it’s rich and complex aromas as well as it’s delicate finish.
Nowadays, Champagne Balincourt is owned and operated by the
Meyblum family.
