FeaturedWinemaker

Guillaume Roffiaen, Champagne Nicolas Feuillatte

Founded in 1976, Champagne Nicolas Feuillatte emerged with 30 acres of prime vineyards in Montagne de Reims, as a fresh addition among the major Champagne brands. Celler master, Guillaume Roffiaen, had a lifelong passion for wine which began early on, prompting him to pursue studies in agricultural engineering and business at the Institut Superieur d’Agriculture in Lille. This led him to Reims, where he immersed himself in the art of winemaking. In March 2017, he took on the role of Chief Winemaker, where he takes charge of every aspect, from vine cultivation to wine production. His leadership consistently drives advancements in innovation for this esteemed winery.
