Isiah Thomas brought Cheurlin Champagne to the U.S. in 2016, making it the largest minority owned champagne in the world. Founded in the Aube in 1788, the Cheurlin family celebrates over nine generations of growers and have continued the hands-on tradition staking their name and reputation on crafting France’s finest Champagne.
