Today the company is run by the two children, Jean-François, oenologist and Marianne, a young entrepreneur; the Maison Gamet is therefore today at the crossroads of generations.

Production method
It is produced according to the so-called champenoise method or classic method, a method in which the wine undergoes two different fermentations: the first, the alcoholic one (which it shares with the rest of the wines) takes place in vats for fermentation; the second instead takes place directly in the bottle and ensures that during this second procedure, thanks to particular yeasts, the wine also develops carbon dioxide (which will then give life to the famous bubbles when uncorked). The grapes used for this cuvéè are all selected from the vineyards of Fleury-la-Rivière & Damery, in the heart of the Marne Valley.
