Style
Pierre Peters specialises exclusively in Chardonnay-based Champagnes, drawing from the chalk-rich soils of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger in the Côte des Blancs. The house is known for blanc de blancs production, a style that showcases the mineral character and precision of the region's finest terroir.
History
The estate has been stewarded by the Peters family across six generations, with Rodolphe Peters serving as the current custodian. In 2026, the house opened its private vine nursery and cellar to visitors—a significant gesture given that the nursery is understood to be the only privately operated facility of its kind within the Champagne appellation. The nursery represents the house's long-term commitment to controlling viticultural continuity and the selection of plant material that will define future harvests.
