Champagne Thiénot was founded in 1985 by visionary wine entrepreneur Alain Thiénot, entering the Champagne landscape long after the historic Grandes Maisons. From the outset, the House set out to chart its own course. Today, Champagne Thiénot is led by Alain’s children, Garance and Stanislas Thiénot, who continue to cultivate the House’s intrinsic identity: inventive, contemporary, and resolutely elegant. Under Stanislas’s leadership, Thiénot has evolved from a boutique family estate into a globally recognized Champagne house, firmly rooted in exceptional Grand and Premier Cru vineyards.

In this exclusive masterclass, Stanislas Thiénot personally introduces his family house through its finest cuvées, all presented in magnum format. The journey begins with Thiénot Brut, a pure expression of the House style, defined by finesse, freshness, and crystalline fruit. We then explore the Family Collection from the outstanding 2008 vintage: Cuvée Stanislas, a racy and mineral blanc de blancs; Cuvée Garance, offering a generous and structured blanc de noirs expression; and Cuvée Alain Thiénot, a masterful union of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The experience culminates with the House’s rarest wine, La Vigne aux Gamins, a single-vineyard Champagne—an exceptional finale to an extraordinary tasting. Join Stanislas Thiénot for an exploration of one of Champagne’s most exciting and upward-moving family houses.
Raised at the heart of his family’s eponymous Champagne house in Reims, Stanislas Thiénot has been immersed in the world of winemaking since the House’s founding by his father in 1985. As CEO of the Alain Thiénot Group, he has led a bold strategic shift from domestic focus to international growth, positioning the House on the global stage. Today, alongside his sister Garance, he plays a central role in governance, international development, and operational leadership—ensuring both generational continuity and the House’s enduring independence.
