Larmandier-Bernier Terre de Vertus comes from a plot of Chardonnay which has been vinified separately since 1995. This is the place called Les Barillers located in the middle of the hillside in Vertus. This terroir is very particular, delicate, saline and at the same time very complex. The balance is there, no need to assemble!

For several generations, Maison Larmandier-Bernier has been rooted in Vertus, in the heart of the Côte des Blancs, and has become a benchmark for terroir-driven Champagnes. Today, Pierre and Sophie Larmandier manage the 18-hectare estate, which has been farmed biodynamically since the late 1990s.
This natural approach allows the true character of the great Chardonnay (and Pinot Noir) terroirs of the Côte des Blancs to shine through with purity and authenticity. Larmandier-Bernier Champagnes are renowned for their mineral precision, vibrant energy, and timeless elegance.
Iconic cuvées such as “Latitude,” “Longitude,” and “Vieille Vigne du Levant” embody the house’s philosophy: to reveal the truth of Champagne’s soils through wines that are alive, profound, and unique.

Non-vintage, this cuvée contains 40% of wines from the estate's perpetual reserve, which began in 2004.
Larmandier-Bernier Vieille Vigne du Levant comes from an exceptional plot in a place called “Bourron du Levant” facing south-east. The vines are between 56 and over 80 years old.
