About the wine
Pierre's effortlessly balanced and devastatingly fresh Premier Cru
- Pierre is part of a 10 generation strong family of winemakers. With years of tradition and experience making Champagne with grapes from his different family vineyards under his belt, Pierre has started experimenting with exciting new ways of producing that keeps the highly coveted Champagne terroir as no.1.
- Pierre's Premier Cru is fabulously refined and classy - and with good reason. He painstakingly selects an array of only the best grapes from his family vineyards before oh so gently pressing them. Treated with kid gloves from start to finish, Pierre makes sure than not an ounce of flavour is lost from these premium grapes.
- The results roll in in the form of one fabulously balanced Champagne, packed with mouthwatering roundness and fresh zesty orange flavours to make your eyes pop. In other words, this is a bottle of fizz you won't be forgetting in a hurry.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Pierre Grandin
- Pierre officially became a winemaker back in 2012 but he's been a bit of dab with all things winemaking since the age of 12 when he would keep an eye on the cellar for his Dad. Most of his childhood memories are set against the backdrop of vines and stainless steel vats.
- Pierre is a true innovator and there's not a chance you'll find him resting on his laurels. He's always looking for new ways to bring technology together with the high-end selection of grapes from his thoroughly classy appellation, to make eye-popping Champagne that is totally out of this world.
- Pinot Meunier, one of the lesser known heroes when it comes to Champagne, is his favourite grape. Although Chardonnay and Pinot Noir tend to steal the spotlight, Pierre reckons that Meunier packs a bit of extra punch. It requires just that bit of extra technical TLC but when you have a winemaker like Pierre willing to put in the extra hours, the hard work pays off in bags of flavour.
