Information sur le domaine

The history of the Varnier-Fannière estate dates back to 1860, when the Fannière family began growing grapes and selling them to the Champagne negociant houses. It was only in 1950 that the family started producing Champagne under their own name. In 1989 Denis Varnier took over the vineyards and the house we know today was born. Varnier-Fannière's vineyard holdings are tiny, just 4 hectares of exclusively Grand Cru vineyards in Avize, Oger, Oiry and Cramant. Annual production is 3000 cases...

Novembre 2022

The NV Extra Brut Esprit de Craie sure lives up to its name. Bright, savory and intensely mineral, the Esprit de Craie is a bundle of energy. Lemon confit, graphite, dried herbs, smoke and underbrush confer tons of nuance. The Esprit de Craie is one of the most complex and distinctive Champagnes I tasted this year. There's a lot of wine here, the Esprit is austere and yet also wonderfully complex. Dosage is 6 grams per liter. Disgorged: June 7, 2022.

Revisited from the October 2017 disgorgement, Varnier-Fannière's NV Extra Brut Esprit de Craie continues to show well, delivering an inviting bouquet of nougat, preserved lemon and rock salt. Medium to full-bodied, it's pure and delicate, with ripe but racy acids, elegantly chalky structure and a nicely defined fisnih.
