Come on down and meet Jérôme Durand, President of Champagne Canard-Duchêne, for a very limited, very fancy cellar tasting! Jérôme has had significant roles with Lanson, Besserat de Bellefon, Tsarine, and Larsen Cognac. Under his direction, Canard-Duchêne has renewed its focus on vineyard identity, sustainability, and the craftsmanship behind its wines, while preserving more than 150 years of tradition! The house's particular approach to blending, most notably its use of perpetual reserves, produces Champagnes that balance generous fruit and complexity with precision and freshness. 

Founded in 1868 by barrel-maker Victor Canard and winemaker Léonie Duchêne, Canard-Duchêne is one of Champagne's most historic houses! Based in the Premier Cru village of Ludes in Montagne de Reims, the house has built its reputation around Pinot Noir, focusing on the grape's elegance, freshness, and finesse rather than its richness and power. Premium vineyard sites, extensive use of reserve wines, and significant aging in six kilometers of historic chalk cellars all help to create the vibrant style of Canard-Duchêne. A commitment to sustainable viticulture, including organically farmed vineyards
