The story of Champagne Sadi Malot begins with Socrate Malot. As a tribute to his brother Sadi, so named because he was born on the day of the assassination of Sadi Carnot (French President from 1887-1894) and died during the First World War, he gave the winery and his son this name with historical significance.

Currently at the helm are Cindy Malot and her husband Florian Villiere.
Now in the fifth generation, the family cultivates 9 hectares of Chardonnay and 2 hectares of Pinot Noir. Located in Villers-Marmery (Montagne de Reims), the soils in the family's vineyards are crossed by calcareous bedrock, similar to the Cote de Blancs, thus providing the explanation for the high proportion of Chardonnay in a region dominated by Pinot Noir. The wines from this site are characterized above all by their elegance, tension and freshness.

For 15 years they have only used organic fertilizers, avoided heavy machinery wherever possible in order not to compact the soil and are HVE certified. Since 2022 the vineyards have even been managed biodynamically. In addition to the measures in the vineyard, the issue of sustainability is also taken very seriously in the cellar, including by using wood for the barrels from the nearby Argonne forest.

Both tanks and barrels and concrete eggs are used in the vinification process. Many reserve wines mature in tanks using the solera method ("eternal reserve" from 1982) and are given long rest periods on the fine lees. Bottled without fining or filtration, the maturation time in the bottle is 3 to 10 years. Through the constant pursuit of perfection, the Malot family succeeds in showing the potential of the Montagne de Reims in a new light and deepening the knowledge acquired and passed on from generation to generation.
