From 1990, their first vintage, the new owners defined TYPICALITY and BALANCE as the essential criteria for the QUALITY of the wines produced by the Maison Champy:
Typicality enables the specific characteristics of each Burgundy area to be distinguished in the different wines produced. This objective of typicality has lead the Maison Champy not to impose one sole style on all its wines, but rather to present a range of Burgundy wines which reflects all the nuances particular to each label of origin.
Balance is the essential characteristic of Burgundy wines, thanks to the natural expression of the Burgundy grape varieties Pinot Noir and Chardonnay on our soils. To preserve and sublimate this balance, Champy is careful never to force the vines or the wines, choosing to favour environmentally friendly means of growing, limiting the yield of our vines, using very gentle and natural winemaking methods and giving the wines the time they need to mature before being bottled (from 10 to 20 months depending on the wines and vintages).
