About This Vineyard

Creating a great Champagne, as any other wine, begins in the vineyards. The recipe of a good grape is simple but demanding : old vines, cultivated soils, low yields, a vine that survives for itself without fertilizers and hand picking at optimum maturity. The average age of our vines is 33 years, and our organic vineyard is cultivated with the forgotten techniques that respect the terroir.

At Larmandier-Bernier, each harvest, each vat, each cask, each barrel has its own life and its own yeasts. Each year is a new start because the yeasts change with the crus. The wild yeasts are not an estate selection re-used each year. And it is not that the first vat to start fermentation is spread into the others vats to speed the process. Is it necessary to be this particular to make a good wine? No. Is it necessary to make a great wine? Yes.
