The 2013 vintage reveals a subtle and original aromatic amplitude to be enjoyed as an aperitif or with an old Gruyère or Comté.

The AR Lenoble House is one of the few Champagne Houses that is still today family-owned and entirely independent.
It was in 1915 that Armand-Raphael Graser, then wine trader in Alsace, left his home region for the Champagne region in the town of Damery, in an 18th century building with the region’s typical architecture which is today the company’s head office. He started to produce Champagne under the brand ‘AR Lenoble’, AR standing for his initials, and Lenoble in honour of Champagne’s nobleness.
In 1947, his son Joseph succeeds him, then in 1973, with Joseph’s retirement, the House is passed down to Jean-Marie Malassagne, grandson of Armand-Raphael, who then leaves place to his daughter Anne and his son Antoine.
Therefore, it is today the fourth generation who’s at the head of this great House.
