Message from Management
The Dauby Mère et Fille champagne house welcomes you to the historic birthplace of great champagnes in Aÿ-Champagne. It was born of the meeting of two winegrowing families, Thérèse Tissier and Guy Dauby, two lovers of the land and wine. With a few inherited plots and a lot of hard work, they built up a vineyard on some of the best slopes in the region. In 1956, the adventure began with the acquisition of small oak champenoises and the production of the first Champagne Dauby cuvée. Today, the estate comprises eight hectares of vines, including one Grand Cru and three Premier Crus, planted mainly with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. On the website or on site, the house offers a variety of cuvées ranging from bruts to whites and rosés. You can, for example, sample the Cuvée Brut Premier Cru, a harmonious blend of Pinot noir and Chardonnay, with fruity and mineral notes. Available in demi-sec and half-bottles, it's the perfect accompaniment to cocktails and seafood platters. An excellent address for enjoying the finest local champagnes!

What made this tasting truly special was the combination of craftsmanship, family history, and genuine hospitality. Our host took his time to share the story behind the house, the production methods, and the unique character of each champagne. Very informative and shared with visible passion.
The champagnes themselves were refined, full of character, and beautifully balanced. We were especially impressed by the 2015 vintage – elegant, complex, and nicely aged. Naturally, we took a bottle home with us.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for an authentic and personal experience in the Champagne region. Merci, famille Dauby!
