Champagne Cazé-Thibaut, based in Châtillon-sur-Marne, between Épernay and Château-Thierry, Fabien Cazé took over the family estate in 2007 but waited until 2013 to release his first vintage; giving the soils and vines time to fully transition from conventional farming to a natural approach.

Fabien has taken the time to create Champagnes that reflect his vision, a parcel-by-parcel approach guided by observation and experimentation, constantly refining his understanding. His philosophy is one of continual questioning, always striving to get closer to the essence of his terroirs on high hillside slopes, where the bedrock lies just beneath the surface. We’re delighted to introduce you to his work.
