Producer Information

Dom Prignon is a celebrated Champagne brand owned by Mot & Chandon. Its origins can be traced back to the Abbey of Saint Pierre d’Hautvillers in northern France the so-called birthplace of Champagne.The 17th-Century Benedictine monk Dom Pierre Prignon is credited with its invention after taking up the position as the abbey’s cellarer and procurator in 1668. Pierre Prignon spent the remaining 47 years of his life striving to create the “best wine in the world”, with his wine even gracing the tables of the court of King Louis XIV, the Sun King.To this day the Abbey of Saint Pierre d’Hautvillers houses the “Le Trait de la culture des vignes de Champagne”, or the “Treatise on the culture of the vines of Champagne”, a manuscript that was penned by Dom Pierre Prignon’s pupil and successor.
