The Ponson Vineyards are about 13.5 hectares of vines spread out between seven different Premier Cru communes across the Montagne-des-Reims, exclusively in the Petite Montagne sub-appellation located just south-west of Reims. The majority of their vineyards are planted to Pinot Meunier, around 70%, the remaining 30% is planted to equal parts Pinot Noir & Chardonnay. They hold parcels in Vrigny, Coulummes-la-Montagne, Pargny-lès-Reims, Jouy-lès-Reims, Ville-Dommange, Sacy & Ecueil.

The soils of the Petite Montagne are primarily chalky subsoils with a unique mix of clay, limestone and sandy topsoils making it ideal territory for Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir. A large majority of the plots lie in the mid-slope and have a nice balanced mix of sand & chalk.
