Tasting Notes
Champagne Tellier’s Les Conardins Pinot Meunier Extra Brut displays a delicate pale rose-gold hue and a very fine, persistent bead. The nose opens generously with notes of strawberry, grenadine, and white flowers, gradually developing more exotic nuances of passion fruit as it evolves in the glass. On the palate, the wine is silky and refined, with a gentle creaminess from the effervescence balanced by lively, mouth-watering acidity. Its fruit-driven character is carried through to a savoury, persistent finish, leaving a smooth and satisfying impression.
More About The Winery
Located in Moussy near Épernay, between the Montagne de Reims and the Côte des Blancs, Champagne Tellier is a rising grower estate at the heart of the region. With 7 hectares in Moussy and Pierry (the historic Domaine des Conardins) and another 2 hectares across Chavot, Fontaine/Aÿ, and Cramant, the domaine farms 13 plots, each vinified separately to showcase its unique terroir.
The vineyards are planted primarily to Pinot Meunier (59%), balanced with Chardonnay (35%) and a touch of Pinot Noir (6%). Deeper soils over chalk in Moussy and Pierry give wines structure and length, while the chalky terroirs of Chavot, Aÿ, and Cramant bring elegance, minerality, and finesse.
A new chapter began in 2014, when the estate was acquired by the Moulin and Cathiard families, bringing fresh vision and energy. Today, Champagne Tellier is celebrated for Champagnes that combine power, elegance, and precise terroir expression, crafted with respect for nature and tradition.
