About Michel Gaillot
Michel Gaillot is a family-run grower-producer (récoltant-manipulant) champagne house based at Mardeuil in the Vallée de la Marne, on the left bank of the river near Épernay. The house traces its history to 1890, when Edmond Mailliet founded it, and it has been passed down through the family ever since. It grows its own grapes, makes its own wine and sells under the Champagne Michel Gaillot label, with a second label, Cossiez-Gaillot, for limited numbered cuvées.
Who Is This For?
