Champagne Sanger winery was founded in 1952 by 16 winemakers, mostly from the Montagne de Reims, who wanted to enhance the components of the Champagne terroir and who decided to found the Sanger house in Avize. Sanger extends over 13 hectares spread over 42 crus that represent the entire Champagne appellation, allowing the winery to offer an exceptional tasting journey through Champagne. With 70% of supplies in Grand Cru Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, the elegance, finesse and character of their best vintages are combined.
The reserve wines of this winery, isolated by vintage and grape variety, are selected for their aging potential, supporting the various products of the winery over time, giving coherence to the unique and distinct style of the house. To offer mature vintages, respecting their origins and their purity, the house dedicates great attention and patience in respecting the raw material: from the fruit of the vine to the wood of the Avize forest. "To offer a range of products that combine tradition and modernity, it is essential to know where we come from to better understand where we are going." Nicolas Robert, cellar master.
The grapes selected by Sanger are the result of great attention to the environment and production quality: minimal or no use of chemicals, obsessive control of the vineyard and bunches, organic fertilization, maximum cleanliness in every production process. The physical and mechanical processes are ensured and optimized by patience in the processes and mastery of time with long refinements (on yeasts) ensuring respect for the origins and historical rules of Champagne.
