Champagne Mandois

Style

Mandois has built its identity around Chardonnay, a natural focus given Pierry's position within the Côte des Blancs. The house has recently expanded its range with mono-cru and single-varietal cuvées that emphasize the character of individual parcels and grape varieties. In 2026, Mandois released its first ratafia de Champagne, a fortified marc-based liqueur that sits outside the main appellation rules but remains rooted in regional tradition.

History

Now in its ninth generation of family ownership, Mandois represents one of the region's more enduring independent producers at a time when consolidation has reduced the number of houses remaining in founding-family hands. The house's long stewardship of Chardonnay vineyards in the Côte des Blancs reflects both terroir commitment and continuity. Recent releases signal a producer willing to deepen its exploration of its own vineyards and regional heritage.
