One of the great value producers out there in Champagne, André Chemin has been a family house since its creation in 1948. It blends its champagnes in the heart of the Reims mountains. Most of their vines planted are Pinot Noir, as their entry level, killer value Premier Cru Champagne is also 100% Pinot Noir.
Today, Sébastian and his wife Eva are at the head of a 6.5 hectare family estate on the Premier Cru hills of the Reims Mountain. They produce a beautiful range of champagnes that impress for the price.

NV Andre Chemin Premier Cru ‘Tradition’ Champagne- 100% Pinot Noir, the brilliant NV Andre Chemin Premier Cru ‘Tradition’ Champagne shows plenty of weight and surrounding tension once on the attack.
