André Roger

André Roger carries a name with the ring of French elegance, tied to classic winemaking tradition. It's a house that insists on craft over mass production, in the company of France's many smaller, family-run producers. Quiet quality over high profile.

  • Bottle of André Roger Grand Cru Champagne with gold label
    Item no.: 22227065464-8827557

    Grand Cru is the highest classification a Champagne village can achieve - only 17 of Champagne's more than 300 villages carry that title, and André Roger sources its grapes from exactly there.

    Expert's Description

    André Roger Grande Reserve Brut Grand Cru is a Champagne from Champagne, France made from Pinot Noir, bottled at 12% ABV.

    The Grand Cru designation means the grapes come exclusively from villages holding the highest quality classification on the region's scale. The Champagne has delicate, fine bubbles and is made by the Traditional Method with bottle fermentation. Its velvety palate and expressive fruit aromas make it a Champagne that can hold its own against the house's more famous names.

About André Roger

André Roger is a French wine producer. There is limited public documentation about the house's specific region, grape varieties, and founding year. The name sits naturally among France's many smaller, quality-focused wine producers.

History & Background

The Roger family has grown grapes in the region for several generations and, like many other family houses in Champagne, has chosen to keep both growing and winemaking in-house rather than selling the grapes on to the big houses. That model means less volume but more direct control over the finished champagne.

Production & Style

Grapes from the house's own vineyards in the Montagne de Reims are harvested and vinified in small batches, in a style that emphasises freshness and a direct link between soil and glass.

Signature Style

Fresh, Site-driven, Hands-on
Creamy fruit balanced by lively acidity, with a distinct imprint of the Montagne de Reims' chalky soil.

The récoltant-manipulant mark, RM, on a champagne bottle tells you the grapes were grown and the champagne made by the same family, a detail many champagne drinkers never notice.
