Adrien Renoir represents the new generation of Champagne growers redefining Verzy’s Grand Cru terroir. Based in the Montagne de Reims, his family has been cultivating vines since the 1960s, though it was Adrien’s return to the domaine in 2014 that marked a turning point. Building on his father Vincent’s foundations, he converted the estate to organic and biodynamic viticulture, drastically reducing yields and focusing on site transparency. The domaine farms just under 7 hectares, primarily Pinot Noir, on Verzy’s chalk-rich slopes, many vines over 40 years old. Adrien works parcel by parcel, vinifying each with indigenous yeasts in barrel and employing minimal sulphur. His wines are bottled without fining or filtration and receive long lees ageing. The result is a collection of precise, textural Champagnes that honour Verzy’s deep chalk, its tension, and its elegant aromatic restraint.
Le Cépage Verzy Grand Cru is a distinctive exploration of varietal character. The cuvée varies each year, spotlighting a single grape to highlight how Verzy’s chalk terroir shapes its expression. The current release is 100% Pinot Noir, drawn from multiple old-vine parcels across the Grand Cru slope. Vinified in oak with indigenous yeasts and aged on lees for several years, it balances depth and lift, showing red fruit, toasted almond, and fine mineral drive.
