Description

Champagne Andre Robert’s family history dates back to the 1800’s in amongst the vines of Le Mesnil sur Oger, and is now helmed by 5th generation Claire Robert, and her husband Jean-Baptiste. The family is blessed with a suite of 65 individual parcels, with the vast majority being Grand Cru Côte des Blancs. Oak is favoured for primary fermentation, before going to bottle where it spends at least 3 years on lees. 

 The wines present powerful & detailed expressions that highlight the nuances of the terroir of the Côte des Blancs. Resting in the cellars are a number of cuvees that prove that this is an estate driven to push the boundaries
