Tasting Notes
A precise and expressive 100% Pinot Noir Champagne. It opens with bright aromas of yellow fruits like pear and melon, accented by mint, brioche, and hazelnut. On the palate, it is silky and generous, with fine bubbles, soft texture, and a vibrant backbone of acidity. Subtle pastry, thyme, and chalky minerality emerge through the mid-palate, leading to a long, savory finish. This cuvée balances ripeness and freshness, showing both depth and tension from its chalky terroir in Fontaine-sur-Aÿ.
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.
