\"FAMILLEIt all started in ECUEIL, 12 generations of winegrowers ago,<\/strong> with Nicaise LACOURTE (back in 1630).
\nWe were then preparing non-sparkling red and white wines, initially for clergymen and later for merchants..<\/p>\n

Soon after the war, in 1947, Henri LACOURTE took a leap of faith and jumped into the production of Champagne under the brand name LACOURTE-LABASSE. Then, in 1959, Yves LACOURTE (the son) got married with Jeanine GUILLEMART of the neighbouring village and they created the brand LACOURTE-GUILLEMART.<\/p>\n

It’s in 2000 that, with Christine, we took over the business. Conscious of what a wonderful heritage is in our hands, and of our mission to keep it alive, we strive to carry on a tradition of quality and continue to make and market our own Champagne.<\/p>\n

At times we wonder how many of our winegrowing ancestors have used oxen and horses as draught animals. One can only marvel at the countless services rendered.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In modern times, the advent of mechanization led to the invention and manufacture of the tractor, and that was a turning point for winegrowers. As soon as tractors appeared on the market, agricultural development was boosted. Old chores became a faster pleasure ride.<\/p>\n
