History of a passion
Based in the historic village of Brouillet, Paul-Vincent Ariston is continuing the winemaking tradition of his ancestors. Paul is the fifth generation winemaker in his family who for over two centuries have been perfecting the art of Champagne- making, mixing modernity with respect, skill and knowledge.
Filled with character and located in the Ardre Vallee (west of Reims), wine making has always been the way of life in Brouillet - claiming roots as far back as the legal act of 1794. Over time, the house has embraced the more dynamic elements of progress whilst honouring its fundamental values - quality as standard and a fierce dedication to tradition.
The tradition of quality
As an ambassador for the region, the Alvina estate operates 12 hectares of vineyards - and the original "Vieilles Vignes" dominate the site. The traditional Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier varieties are crushed in the highest quality Coquard family press. Respect for the environment has always been a priority in our vineyards. Having obtained the HEV (High Environmental Value) and VDC (Sustainable Vitamins Champenoise) certificates we are now beginning the conversion to organic agriculture.
