History
& Portrait
Champagne Édouard Prétrot is a vision.
A legacy that Sara (great granddaughter of Edouard) and Frédéric, are keeping alive by giving a second wind to the ambition of the house which today embodies the audacity and determination that its founder showed in his time and that it has received as a legacy.
The strength of ideas...
Édouard initiated the wine history of the Prétrot family. Daring creator and skilful winemaker, a man of
convictions driven by a spirit of constant vigilance, he was one of the pioneers in his family and in
his village of Fleury-la-Rivière, to vinify his grapes at the beginning of the 20th century, at the height
of the golden age of Champagne.
A hard worker, a pure and hard winemaker, he was an aesthete blender and a lover of the good things in life.
Self-taught, he had the gift of recognizing a good opportunity when it presented itself to him and a certain talent to provoke his destiny.
His unfailing determination made him a seasoned entrepreneur and visionary. These values have been
passed down from generation to generation and are fiercely defended by the company, for whom no step is too high.
