A new welcome drink champagne brand

We are pleased to announce the new champagne brand with which we welcome you to Zornitza Family Estate – André Heucq, a fourth-generation, family-run grower Champagne house. André Heucq and his daughter, Fanny, specialize in Pinot Meunier, crafting wines from nearly six hectares of estate vineyards. André’s grandfather—also named André—founded the house in 1936.

His son Roger took the reins in 1955, planted additional vineyards and modernized the cellar. In 1973, the younger André Heucq took over, and his tenure has been defined by a shift to organic and biodynamic practices. He and his small team plow by horse, maintain natural ground cover, and stick to natural fertilizers and herbal tea treatments. The winery is self-sustaining and ECOCERT certified for producing its own electricity, recycling wastewater, and utilizing geothermal energy. Elsewhere in Champagne, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir dominate the hillsides, but on this land, Pinot Meunier is king – it comprises 80% of Heucq’s vineyard.

At Zornitza Family Estate you will have the chance to savor the magnificent 100% Meunier champagne, aged in cellar 48 months on lees.
