History of Maison Telmont

Maison Telmont was founded in Damery in 1912 by Henri Lhôpital, a visionary winegrower who began producing and marketing his own champagnes.

The house was later developed by successive generations of the Lhôpital family. André Lhôpital expanded the vineyard and strengthened the estate’s reputation, while Serge Lhôpital continued to grow production and sales. Bertrand Lhôpital later carried on the family tradition, helping the house preserve its distinctive style and Champagne savoir-faire.

Today, Telmont remains rooted in its historic Champagne heritage while pursuing a strong environmental commitment. Since 2020, the house has been supported by Rémy Cointreau, its majority shareholder, with the shared ambition of developing the brand while preserving its artisanal expertise and commitment to organic winegrowing.

Travellers' review - Domaine J. de Telmont

  • Autumn Weekend

    Interesting discoveries of two very different producers, one very "authentic" in Hautvillers and the other "modern" J. de Telmont. Very professional comments from both. Hôtel Jean Moët is especially noteworthy for its atmosphere and decor, as well as the quality of its food. Le Clos Saint Georges in Ay is a must for your next visit to the region.

  • A pleasant jaunt around Epernay

    - On Friday morning, we were warmly welcomed at the Maison J. de Telmont in Damery for a visit followed by an interesting cheese and champagne tasting. The champagnes were of high quality and very original. The young lady was very professional and friendly. - The Hotel Jean Moët is very pleasant, with beautiful surroundings, a good breakfast and a warm welcome. Unfortunately, we weren't able to take advantage of all the services (swimming pool, spa...). - The restaurant Les Berceaux offered us a very fine, quality dinner, accompanied by a wide choice of Champagnes. We chose Franck Pascal's Reliance, which was very well suited to the dishes served, a beautiful setting and a visit from the chef at the end of the meal. - The next day, we decided not to go on the bike ride we'd planned a little early, and replaced it with a visit to Hautvillers in very pleasant weather. - Lunch at the Clos Saint Georges in Aÿ was also very good, with fine cuisine and excellent local Lallier champagne. - Finally, the escapade ended with another, simpler visit to a smaller producer, Philippe Martin in Cumières.

  • Great weekend for two

    An unforgettable stay: - The "Soul of Champagne" workshop at Domaine J. de Telmont, perfect for opening your taste buds and discovering the subtleties of champagne, with Lucile's friendly welcome and comprehensive explanations. - The vineyard tour in the folkloric deu-deuche and in the company of Philippe Martin, who is as at ease on his hillsides as he is on the benches of the Assemblée Nationale, and who knows everything there is to know about his vines. - Overnight at Clos Saint Georges, with an excellent welcome and a succulent dinner. The property has enormous charm. - The mountain-bike tour along the banks of the Marne with Olivier Stennier, with beautiful views before and after crossing Epernay, and the visit to Philippe Benard's cellars, with many explanations and always a warm welcome. Special mention for the meal shared with Olivier and his delicious homemade quiche lorraine! - The Domaine de Castellane, a group visit in a more touristy format, where you don't learn much that's new (thanks to the explanations given on previous visits), but which is well worth a visit for the size of the cellars and the historical perspectives offered by the tour. A faultless tour, thanks to Vinotrip and the professionals who welcomed us and shared their passion with us.

  • WEEKEND IN CHAMPAGNE

    We were very well received at DESRUETS and they guided us very well to discover this wonderful village of HAUTVILLIERS. A very cordial and professional welcome at DE TELMONT. Then at MERCIER, we're moving upmarket in terms of company size. We personally extended VINOTRIP's program with a visit to MOET and CHANDON, imperial in terms of quality and service. and finished with a visit to DE CASTELLANE's champagne museum, having climbed the 254 steps of the tower! The accommodation at JEAN MOET's was perfect, and the evening meal at the 'grains d'argent' was well prepared. On Sunday lunchtime, we had difficulty finding the restaurant.

  • Original and very pleasant stay

    A mountain bike ride through the vineyards and over the hills is a great way to discover the region! And with an enthusiastic guide! The workshop at the Domaine de Telmont is a masterpiece of finesse. Dinner and overnight stay at Clos St Georges are very pleasant, in a peaceful setting...bring a GPS to find your way around on the first try. The 2CV tour the next day is brilliant! All in all, a great weekend, original and well organized. Thank you Vinotrip!

  • A great discovery!

    What a pleasure to be taken by the hand to discover a region! starting with a "short private" at J de Telmont where we were very well received,where he put himself at your level to help you discover and appreciate the work of the Champagne region,that champagne is not just a party and an aperitif,that it can be enjoyed throughout the meal...we were ready for what was to come! In the afternoon, tasting at Barnaut in Bouzy, a magnificent period sign, a small boutique combining champagne decoration and gifts. Not only was the lady in charge very pretty (which didn't spoil anything), but she was also very knowledgeable in her field, and it was without hesitation that she let us taste their entire range. Evening meal at the Michelin-starred Les Berceaux restaurant in Epernay, (impossible to find anything to complain about! service, welcome, taste, copiousness...they're not Michelin-starred for nothing!) Overnight stay on site(very pleasant not to have to take the car back) Right in the center, less quiet but very good and buffet breakfast.the most pleasant of discoveries was the restaurant le vieux puit a Ay,a passionate couple who make you feel it right down to the plate and their extraordinary welcome!

  • Idyllic weekend

    We booked this weekend a little last minute and were more than satisfied. We were able to visit the Domaine de Telmont, have dinner (not to be missed!) and spend the night at the Chateau d'Etoges. A faultless trip! The Vinotrip team personalized our weekend according to our wishes and constraints (right down to the choice of place to pick up our rental car). They didn't hesitate to offer us different options depending on the availability of their partners and adapting to our program on the spot (which we changed several times!).

  • Opinions of Tourangeaux-Angevins on Champagne tasting holidays

    We were "superbly" welcomed by the House of TELMONT, with a beautiful visit, explanations of the production of their champagnes and, to finish, a tasting, without moderation, of 3 different quality champagnes, accompanied by a variety of petits fours... In the evening, we stayed in a spacious, quiet B&B at "La Baleinière" in Pargny les reims, where we enjoyed a warm welcome, a good dinner and a hearty, varied breakfast. Lunch the next day in the Halles district of Reims: Le petit Comptoir, a semi-gastro restaurant with an excellent address. Afternoon: a visit to the Edmond BARNAUT estate in BOUZY, with a wide-ranging tasting of several champagnes. What we didn't like was the setting! Continued our 4-day tasting trip in Alsace...
