Pommery
It was in 1836 that the future Pommery house was founded by Narcisse Greno. Twenty years later, he was joined by Mr. Pommery. And it was following the premature death of the latter that the Pommery saga truly began. His wife, Jeanne-Alexandrine Louise Melin, took over the management of the establishment in 1858. In just a few years, she would profoundly transform and modernize the Pommery house. Under her leadership, sales multiplied, and Mrs. Pommery undertook ambitious works to build Elizabethan-style buildings on what was then just wasteland. It was in 1870 that the gigantic works began to build an estate with English architecture that would remind her clients, largely British, of their homeland. The project was immense, requiring the drilling of underground galleries to connect the approximately 120 chalk pits that riddled the terrain. A network of 18 kilometers of chalk galleries was then created, dug by miners that the Pommery house brought in from northern France. But Mrs. Pommery's other stroke of genius was to automate her cellars. She had a rail system installed in the galleries allowing wicker baskets to be hung to transport bottles quickly and easily. In tribute to this great lady of Champagne, the house created a superb cuvée: La Cuvée Louise. In 2002, Vranken Monopole company integrated Maison Pommery into its Group.
