2012 André Robert – Collection d’Auteur
127,39 €
In stock
Expression
Champagne with great depth and complexity, where aromas of baked bread, citrus zest, white flowers, pear and bee pollen fill both bouquet and palate.
Terroir
The cuvée “Collection d’Auteur” is made exclusively from Chardonnay from Mesnil-sur-Oger. The selected parcels vary from year to year. Where most of the grapes are picked are: Les Vaucherots, Les Coullemets du Midi, Les Finciarts, Les Chétillons, all parcels with very low yields, at most 5,000 to 6,000 kg/ha, which gives grapes with high acidity and low pH, meaning the grapes can be harvested very late and thereby achieve full phenolic ripeness. These grapes make it possible to produce wines with great depth, while preserving nobility and freshness.

Blend
100% comes from the 2012 harvest
Aging:
100% fermented in 228-liter oak barrels

About the house:
The Champagne house André Robert is first and foremost a family business. The Robert family has worked in the vineyards in Champagne for several generations.
Henri Robert (1881–1948) began working in the vineyards “en foule” (as a group) after the First World War. In the 1930s he created the first association of winegrowers to pool resources for pressing and winemaking.
Immediately after the Second World War, André Robert, born in 1925, worked in the vineyards. In 1960 he bought the house, which has wonderful 19th-century chalk cellars where the bottles still rest. He began marketing his champagne in 1962.
Bertrand Robert took the reins of the estate in 1981, accompanied by his wife Colette, who joined the house in 1990.
In 2013, Claire Robert, daughter of Bertrand and Colette, also joined the business. Bertrand gradually handed over the management of the domaine to Claire. In 2016, Claire’s husband, Jean-Baptiste Denizart, also became part of the domaine, and since 2019 they have both run André Robert together.
The winery covers 14 hectares, most of which is classified as Grand Cru and Premier Cru.
Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier are grown. But Chardonnay is the heart and soul of André Robert and always makes up the largest share of all blends. Chardonnay is a fragile and delicate vine that contributes floral, citrus and mineral nuances to the wines, creating elegant and bold wines.
