L'UMC places it in the “Reims: Vesle \u0026amp; Ardre” terroir. The name, Gaugiacus around 948, is of Gallo-Roman origin; “lès” indicates its proximity to Reims.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAccording to the UMC, the vineyard covers 95.6 ha and is tended by 50 winegrowers: Meunier 53%, Pinot Noir 32%, Chardonnay 15%. The plots lie between 114 and 197 metres, with an average slope of 9.3%, and face mainly north, east and north-east; the soils here tend to be marl, clay and sand. According to the Comité Champagne, Meunier adapts well to more clay-rich soils and produces soft, fruity wines that develop more quickly. Among the houses with vineyards in the commune, the UMC cites Veuve Clicquot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAccording to the UMC, the village has always lived off its vineyards: since 1955, a cooperative has brought together winegrowers from Jouy and Pargny. Notre-Dame church, destroyed in the First World War, was rebuilt in 1924 by the Société coopérative de reconstruction to plans by architects Gras, Guiard, Leduc and Rousselot; it retains a stained-glass window of the pregnant Virgin, which the UMC dates to the 15th century. In the échelle des crus, Jouy was rated 90%, and the AOC Champagne regulations list it among the Premier Cru communes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen a Champagne from Jouy-lès-Reims joins the STELT selection, it appears below.
