Champagne Sanger

【Champagne where tradition meets a modern approach】

Champagne Sanger was born in 1952 of the will of sixteen growers, most of them from the Montagne de Reims.

Hoping to carry the appeal of Champagne's terroirs out into the world, they chose to establish Sanger's home at Avize.

All of them graduates of the wine school at Avize, they could imagine no better place than the heart of the Côte des Blancs.

Sanger owns thirteen hectares spread across 42 crus that between them stand for the whole of Champagne, reaching into every one of its terroirs.

Grand Cru Chardonnay and Pinot Noir account for 70% of that holding and give cuvées of rare elegance, delicacy and character.

The reserve wines are kept apart by vintage and chosen for their capacity to age.

Over the years they underpin each vintage and hold the house style steady.

"To offer cuvées that marry traditional Champagne making with a modern approach, we have to know where we come from — only then can we understand where we ought to be going," says cellar master Nicolas Robert.
