Champagne André Heucq

André Heucq BIO Heritage Assemblage

Structure and precision par excellence

The Héritage from André Heucq is a composition of 40 percent Chardonnay and 30 percent each of Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, which was allowed to mature for a full five years and was finally refined with 4 g/l dosage. An intense, incredibly precise enjoyment with great structure!

André Heucq dispenses with the filtration of the wines and relies on the most complex possible assemblage of the base wines, which are also aged in wood. Thanks to the complex soil, the long yeast storage and low dosage, the champagnes of the house shine with a strong, mineral and at the same time crisp style.

Founded in 1936 in Cuisles in the Marne Valley, the Champagne house André Heucq is now managed by the third generation of the same name. After taking over the business in 1973, André committed himself to the conversion to organic viticulture. The Champagne house has been certified organic since 2018. André's children Alexandre and Fanny are now also involved in the family business.

On six hectares of vineyards, André Heucq mainly grows Pinot Meunier, but of course Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are not neglected either. The special soil around Cuisles au Sand, green and calcareous clay gives the champagnes a unique character. A high minerality as well as a great aging potential characterize the wines.
