Description:
The Fannière family has a legacy of grape growing that dates back to 1860. The family’s vineyards are in the most renowned Grand Cru villages, including those of the Avize appellation. The family sold their sought-after grapes to the larger Champagne houses until 1950, when John Fannière decided to start making his own Champagne. Then, in 1965, he passed the winery down to his daughter, Josette, and her husband Guy Varnier. Varnier-Fannière has since been passed down to the third generation, Denis Varnier, who is committed to using the most traditional Champagne-making techniques. The NV Varnier-Fannière Brut Rosé Grand Cru combines the elegance of 90% Chardonnay with the powerful fruit imparted by 10% Pinot Noir. This enchanting and seductive Rosé Champagne is the perfect accompaniment for meat dishes as well as red fruit based desserts.
