Cattier

Cattier Champagne has been based in the charming village of Chigny Les Roses near the city of Reims since 1763. The production and distribution officially started in 1918 at the end of World War as a means for founder Jean Cattier not to lose his harvest. The range of Champagnes are all classified as premier crus and the high quality of Cattier Champagnes is recognised by the international wine press.

Robert Parker rated Cattier excellent in the category of the best champagne producers among the best producers of non-vintage champagne, among the best prestige cuvees of champagne with Clos du Moulin. The cellars of Cattier Champagne are one of the deepest in Champagne and originally served as bomb shelters during the war. They have been dug on 3 levels and their vaults represent 3 different architecture styles: Gothic, Roman and Renaissance. More recently, Cattier has been making Armand de Brignac Champagne which has just been awarded title of Best Champagne in the World by Fine Champagne magazine.

The company is still independent and family-owned to this day.
