Producer

Champagne Ernest Rapeneau is a historic Champagne house with a long tradition of producing classic, approachable Champagnes. The estate focuses on balance, finesse, and consistency, creating wines that are clean, polished, and reliable in style.

Champagne Ernest Rapeneau was founded in 1901 in Hautvillers, a historic village in the Champagne region. After the boundaries of the appellation were established in 1927, the house focused entirely on Champagne. The official recognition of Champagne as an AOC in 1936 allowed the family business to grow further. In 1965, Ernest Rapeneau passed the house to his sons François and Bernard. Later generations continued the family tradition while modernising production.

The house works with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Meunier from a large number of crus across the Champagne region. This broad range of origins offers considerable freedom when composing the cuvées and helps maintain a recognisable style over time. Ernest Rapeneau is known for approachable Champagnes that combine freshness, ripe fruit, a fine mousse and balanced structure. The wines are classic in character, easy to enjoy and suited to a wide range of occasions. Ernest Rapeneau remains faithful to a traditional Champagne style, with a clear focus on balance and consistent quality.
