About Champagne Pascal Lejeune
The origins of this winery started with a few hectares of vines planted in the early 1900s in Moussy, on the southern slopes of Epernay. The family started selling the grapes under the label of their own Domaine beginning in the mid-1950s and, since 1995, been run by Pascal and Sandrine, with their son Thibaut Lejeune joining them in 2015. Their 4.4 hectares of organically and biodynamically grown vines have been certified “Viticulture durable en Champagne” and “Haute Valeur Environnementale.”
