Champagne Clément & Fils
The Clément family settled in Congy in the early 20th century, farming dairy, crops and vines. The estate took its current shape after the Second World War, and the family began bottling under its name in the decades that followed.
Today Aurélien Clément is the fourth generation, a récoltant manipulant based in Congy in the Coteaux du Petit Morin with additional vines at Les Riceys in the Aube. The domaine farms organically, certified in Marne parcels from 2023 and across the estate from 2025. In the cellar they work with a traditional vertical press, ferment with native yeast, age in 205 L Champagne barrels, keep bottles on their lees for extended periods, riddle by hand, and disgorge by hand. The range includes two blends, three single‑parcel vintage Champagnes, and a still Coteaux Champenois.
