CHAMPAGNE BOIZEL
Champagne Boizel is a prestigious, family-owned Champagne house based in Épernay, in the heart of the Champagne region of France. Founded in 1834 by Auguste Boizel and his wife Julie Martin, who came from winegrowers and entrepreneurial backgrounds, the House has been run by the Boizel family for six generations — today led by brothers Florent and Lionel Roques-Boizel.
From its earliest years, Boizel established an international presence, exporting its wines to markets such as England as early as the mid-19th century. The family has long been innovative in Champagne production, introducing Brut-style Champagnes in the 1870s at a time when sweeter styles were more common, and later pioneering Blanc de Blancs releases in the early 20th century.
The House produces a range of elegant Champagnes that emphasize balance, finesse, and terroir expression, blending the classic Champagne varietals — Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Meunier — sourced from several of the region’s Grands and Premiers Crus. Its wines age on the lees in historic chalk cellars beneath the Avenue de Champagne in Épernay, a UNESCO World Heritage site, with disgorgement dates often printed on bottles to ensure optimal drinking windows.
Notable cuvées include the Brut Réserve (a classic non-vintage blend known for its floral aromas, balanced structure, and complexity), Blanc de Blancs and Blanc de Noirs offerings, vintage and prestige bottlings, and rare vintages from Boizel’s Trésor cellar — a historic collection of the House’s greatest vintages.
Overall, Boizel is admired for its combination of heritage, quality, and refined style, representing one of the enduring independent houses in Champagne with a strong legacy of excellence.
