Champagne Bonnaire

Champagne Bonnaire has been producing its own wines since 1932, in the heart of the Cramant vineyard, a village classified as Grand Cru in the Côte des Blancs. The founder, Fernand Bouquemont, enjoyed immediate success with his first bottling in 1932, winning a gold medal at the Concours Général Agricole de Paris.

After World War II, Fernand Bouquemont was joined by his son-in-law, André Bonnaire. Coming from a family of Champagne winegrowers spanning several generations, André devoted all his attention to cultivating the vines and developing the vineyard, assisted in this by his son Jean-Louis.

Today, with a vineyard of over 22 hectares mainly planted with Chardonnay in the grands crus of Champagne, the adventure continues. Indeed, after this decisive step in modernizing production facilities and contributing to the reputation of Champagne Bonnaire, which is increasingly recognized by lovers of fine wines, Jean-Louis Bonnaire, the current president of the company, continues to oversee the company's growth with a passion for the profession. Currently, a new generation is in place with his two sons: Jean-Etienne in charge of production and Jean-Emmanuel in charge of wine sales. The date is set for 2032 to celebrate the centenary of Champagne Bonnaire!
