The Bénard-Pitois family began their Champagne adventure in 1878 and have been improving the cultivation of the soil and the vine as well as the quality of the wine ever since. Michelle and Laurent Bénard-Pitois, who are third generation of wine farmers, considered organic farming already in the 1990’s and carried out the first tests followed by ECOCERT (international certification) on one hectare of land in 1995. In 2009 the conversion took off and has reached 2.5 hectares cultivated according to the AB specifications today Moreover, since 2012, the work with the wine has obtained organic certification.
