Larmandier-Bernier
Côte des Blancs
Since the 19th century, the LARMANDIER family have been cultivating their vines in the premiers and grands crus of the Côte des Blancs. Chalk is the keystone of these great terroirs. In the early 20th century, Larmandier was famous not only for its Champagne but also for its Cramant Nature (still wine).
Since 1988, Pierre dedicates himself to the domain. No more chemicals from 1992, biodynamic and native yeasts since 1999, organic certification in 2003, long élevage on lees in barrels and foudres, are some of Pierre's decisive choices. In 2017, driven by the same conviction, Arthur Larmandier joins his parents on the estate, followed by his brother Georges in 2021.
