Waris et Filles

Champagne Waris et Filles is a family-owned champagne house built on heritage, passion, and craftsmanship. After completing business studies, Virginie, alongside Bertrand who studied viticulture, spent five years working amongst the vineyards and olive groves of Provence before returning to Champagne to continue their family legacy. Today, they proudly care for seven hectares of vineyards passed down through generations — a responsibility they approach with dedication, generosity, and respect for the land. As artisan winemakers, they nurture their vines and craft their champagnes with meticulous attention and a genuine love for their craft.

Technical Notes

Crafted from 70% Pinot Noir sourced equally from Barbonne and Bar-sur-Seine, alongside 30% Chardonnay, Millésime 2018 undergoes delicate pneumatic pressing followed by alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Secondary fermentation takes place slowly in bottle within the house’s traditional chalk cellars, allowing the wine to develop complexity and finesse over time. The champagne is bottled at 12.9% alcohol with a dosage of 4g/L, placing it firmly within the Extra Brut style category.
