Originally from the Champagne region of France, the Gruet family began making champagne in 1952. In 1984, after a careful search for the perfect climate and soil conditions to create excellent sparkling wines, Laurent Gruet and Farid Himeur brought their many years of combined experience and rich tradition of champagne making to Albuquerque.

Nowadays, the Gruet wines - Brut, Blanc de Noirs, Demi-Sec, Blanc de Blancs Vintage Chardonnay and Pinot Noir - are available throughout the nation from New York to Hawaii.
