CHAMPAGNE BARTNICKI PERE ET FILS

A vine archway joins the two stone pillars of the porch of this former winegrower’s house, with its vast courtyard full of flowers. A collection of buildings with its barn and tower dating back to 1690 entirely restored and its 17th century vaulted cellars. In this very beautiful mansion house, there is an impressive reception salon : period timber frames, giant fireplace, tapestries and stained glass windows as well as a majestic staircase instil an almost medieval ambiance, worthy of a chateau.

The third generation of Champagne producers decided to dedicate one of their 100% Chardonnay vintages, the “Elégarose”, to the fourth generation : three adorable mischievous little girls, the two daughters of the family and a niece, Eléonore, Garance and Rose. After studying oenology and planting his first vine in 1989, Vincent, proud to bear the name of the patron saint of vine growers, has vines in three villages : Saint Usage, Verpillièressur- Ource and Gyé-sur-Seine. Standing in front of the family coat of arms, he says that when he is not in his vineyard, he adores doing hi-energy sports : Motorcycling, 4x4, Skiing, Mountain biking. As for his favourite Champagne, it’s the Grande Réserve, produced from a selection of old vines.
