The Story

The Champagne Canard-Duchêne Cuvée V Extra Brut is a meticulously crafted expression of elegance and terroir, combining sustainable practices with a commitment to the rich tradition of Champagne. Located in the Montagne de Reims since 1868, Canard-Duchêne emphasizes its origins through organic vineyard management, a practice aligned with its "Authentic Green" commitment to environmental stewardship. This cuvée is made primarily from Pinot Noir, lending structure and depth, with smaller amounts of Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier contributing freshness and finesse.

About Champagne Canard-Duchene

Producer Story

In 1859 winemaker Léonie Duchêne met and married barrel maker Victor Canard. They decided to combine their last names and produce their own unique Champagne, based on the Pinot Noir grapes they grew in the heart of the Montagne de Reims. They released their first bottling of Champagne eight years later, in 1868, to rave reviews. Léonie was among the first female winemakers in the Champagne region, and to this day Canard-Duchêne is one of the few Champagne houses still family owned. Winemaker Laurent Fédou describes the house style as “very lively, youthful and balanced with freshness and bright acidity”.
