Champagne Pannier

The history of the Pannier Champagne house

Champagne Pannier was founded in 1899 in Dizy, just outside Épernay. Its founder, Louis-Eugène Pannier, worked tirelessly to develop his business. His success enabled him to settle in one of the most prestigious locations in Champagne, Château-Thierry, in the heart of the Marne Valley hillsides.

Pannier's cellars are built with stones extracted from quarries dating back to the 12th century. The archer engraved in one of these deep galleries has since become the emblem of Pannier Champagne. It symbolizes the balance, mastery and skill required to make a great champagne. The brand has thus adopted the archery motto: "Tending to perfection".

Pannier Champagne grapes

Champagne Pannier is made from grapes sourced from Champagne's finest vineyards, from the Côte des Blancs to the Montagne de Reims, via the Vallée de la Marne. It skilfully blends Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier to produce a nectar with a gourmet character and incomparable fruitiness.

Champagne Pannier aims for excellence and has chosen to limit its production. Its know-how and perfectionism are bearing fruit, and its bottles are exported to all five continents.
