Le Mesnil is a major supplier of base wines (vin clair) to other prestigious Champagne houses, including Krug, Salong, Moët & Chandon, Veuve Clicquot, and Taittinger, while also producing its own cuvées.

Founded in 1937, the vineyards of Le Mesnil sur Oger have a truly excellent terroir, the quality of their vineyards comes from the fact that they are east-facing. With vineyard topsoil over a base layer of chalk the vineyards have excellent hydric qualities thus allowing the chardonnay grape to reach their full potential.
