The story of Champagne Schloesser begins in the early 20th century, when René Schloesser left Luxembourg for Champagne in search of a better life. There he met his wife Lucie Coutelas. In 1929, in the midst of an economic crisis, they decided to produce their own champagne. It started modestly with just 1,000 bottles a year, but after the liberation in 1945, production grew. In 1950, their daughter Suzanne married Jean Tribaut, giving birth to the Champagne Tribaut-Schloesser brand name. Today, the estate is run by the fourth generation, Sébastien and Valentin Tribaut.
