Antoine & Clément grew up in Provence, but are now at the helm of the Pertois-Lebrun house in Cramant. They were the only branch of the family to be able to take over the house from their aunt Odile. The relatively young house was founded in 1955 by Paul Pertois (from Cramant) and Françoise Lebrun (from Mesnil-sur-Oger). Since 2004, Odile's successor has been assisted by the young Clément, who, with his love of nature and urge for independence, was the first to feel called to move north from Provence. His brother Antoine, who was now working as a consultant in Paris, followed him later with the idea of making this entrepreneurial adventure a success together with his brother.
The 9.5 hectares of vineyards are located in the grand cru villages of Cramant, Mesnil-sur-Oger, Chouilly, Oger & Oiry and the premier cru villages of Cuis and Villeneuve. The house from Cramant has been HVE and VDC certified since 2019. Chardonnay is the only grape variety used, and the gentlemen use it to make a refined selection of champagnes, spread over 44 plots. From the thirst-quenchingly delicious basic cuvée 'l'Extravertie' to exciting and complex single-plot vintage champagnes.
