Since 2009, Grand Cru Selections has been introducing some of the world’s most exceptional wines to the United States, with a particular focus on Grower Champagne—small-batch, artisanal producers that beautifully reflect the uniqueness of their terroir. This special dinner will showcase the remarkable Champagnes of Adrien Bergère, Pierre Péters, and Chartogne-Taillet.
Adrien Bergère, from the Vallée du Petit Morin, represents a winemaking tradition that dates back to 1848. His masterful use of solera methods and barrel aging produces rich, terroir-driven Champagnes of extraordinary depth. Pierre Péters, a sixth-generation producer from Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, has been crafting Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs since 1919. Under Rodolphe Péters’ leadership since 2007, the house continues to highlight the chalky soils that give their Champagnes a distinctive purity and elegance. Chartogne-Taillet, led by Alexandre Chartogne, reflects the rich geological diversity and history of Merfy, bringing an authentic sense of place to every bottle.
Join us for an unforgettable evening, as our culinary team curates a menu designed to complement the unique qualities of these extraordinary Champagnes. We are also thrilled to welcome Abby Oliveras, National Market Sales Manager of Grand Cru Selections, who will guide us through the evening’s exquisite wine pairings.
