Winemakers for generations, the Josselin family purchased their first vineyard in 1854 on the land of Gyé-sur-Seine, a village in the Barséquanais, in the Côte des Bar. In 1957 Jean Josselin created his own brand and began producing Champagne: thus the Champagne Jean Josselin. Since 1980 the Domaine has been in the hands of Jean-Pierre, son of Jean Josselin, and since 2010 Jean-Félix Josselin, the latest generation, has also joined the family management.
