    Tasting Notes

    Terre de Vertus stands as a shining emblem among the trio of single-terroir Chardonnays birthed at this estate. Hailing from the chalk-laden 1er Cru vineyards of Les Barillers and Les Faucherets, in Vertus's mid-slopes, this wine encapsulates the village's quintessential mineral heart, echoing the revered chalky essence of Le Mesnil. In the vast tapestry of Champagne, Terre de Vertus emerges as a mineral-driven masterpiece, epitomizing the pinnacle of the grower movement.

    Larmandier Bernier

    Larmandier-Bernier, as lauded by Andrew Jefford in his seminal work "The New France," stands as one of Champagne's elite, ranking among the top 5 growers. At the helm of this meticulously managed estate are Pierre Larmandier and his partner Sophie. Their domain now spans 15 hectares, primarily situated in Vertus, at the southernmost tip of the Côte des Blancs. Anchored in the principles of biodynamic viticulture, their vineyards are a testament to their unwavering commitment to sustainability and the environment. Much like their contemporaries, Larmandier-Bernier continually evolves, ascending to ever greater heights. Their wines, ever since, have remained true to their signature vitality and profound minerality, and now, they possess an even greater depth, complexity, and layers of flavor. Larmandier-Bernier is a shining example of a producer unrelenting in their pursuit of excellence, where tradition and innovation converge to create remarkable Champagne.
