In the pristine vineyards of the Marne River valley outside Épernay lies the centuries-old home of Champagne PIAFF. It is here, in a region that has won the hearts (and palates) of people across the world, that our story began. 

 It was in 1901 that Benoni Mansard began to develop his first bottles of champagne and now 6 generations later our expert wine makers have created Champagne PIAFF, a 21st century Champagne that perfectly blends the passion and expertise of a time - honoured skill, embracing a combination of historic and modern world culture.

You are all invited to visit the PIAFF team around their traditional cellar table again this year. Let them show you the art of sabrage as they use our PIAFF sabre to elegantly open the bottles, while the friendly PIAFF staff answer all your questions about the magical process that starts in the vineyards of Champagne and ends in your glass on the lawns at Hampton Court Palace.

The good news is that you don’t have to wait until the summer to enjoy your PIAFF, as they will deliver directly to you now in the UK.

We are delighted to have Champagne PIAFF back at this year's Festival.
