The origins of Maison Gounel-Lassalle date back to 1870, when Arnaud's ancestors acquired vineyards in Ludes.
The winery operated as a cooperative until 2018, when Arnaud made his first wines.
The vision of the winemaker and his wife Sophie is to create champagnes that reflect the terroir of the Gounel-Lassalle house, spread across the crus of Chigny-Les-Roses, Ludes, Rilly-la-Montagne and other vineyards.

Gounel-Lassalle's motto is Wine-Rider, because Arnaud and his wife Sophie are great travellers who have travelled the world and visited many countries, and want to express their desire for freedom and travel in their champagnes.
