A symbol of French excellence, Champagne remains the essential element to accompany your aperitifs, desserts, or festive evenings. Only Champagne made with grapes from the 17 most prestigious terroirs bears the Grand Cru designation. Among the most famous are Ambonnay, Mailly-Champagne, Oiry, and Verzy. Discover Grand Cru Champagnes in our Cavissima online store.

The Champagne Grand Cru appellation means that all the grapes come from villages classified as Grand Cru . There are 17 such villages, all located in the Marne department. The majority are in the Montagne de Reims vineyard : Tours-sur-Marne, Louvois, Beaumont-sur-Vesle, Mailly, Verzenay, Bouzy, Sillery, Ambonnay, Verzy, and Puisieulx. South and north of Épernay, the other classified villages are Cramant, Chouilly, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Oger, Avize, Oiry, and Aÿ.

Grand Cru Champagnes are often more powerful and complex than other sparkling wines from the region.
