Champagne Pommery
The house was founded as Pommery & Greno in 1836 by Alexandre Louis Pommery and Narcisse Greno with the primary business being wool trading. Under the guidance of Alexandre’s widow, Louise Pommery, the firm was dedicated to Champagne production and soon became one of the region’s largest Champagne brands. Champagne Pommery was the first house to commercialize a brut Champagne in 1874.
Pommery is a great name in Champagne history and the house-style is light and fresh, somewhat dry and steely, made up of young fruit, which can take several years aging in bottle to round out before its true potential shines through. They pride themselves on their extensive back vintage collection that are still drinking very well up to this day.
