Heucq is a true Grower Champagne and family-run operation with Fanny supervising the winemaking and marketing while André focuses on the cellar and the 5.7 hectares of his biodynamically and organically farmed vineyards.
100% Pinot Meunier
Champagne André Heucq centers on the Pinot Meunier grape. 80% of the vineyard is planted to the variety with the rest split equally between Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vines. This devotion is confirmed by Peter Liem’s praise of the unique terroir in his book Champagne: “This is prime Meunier country, with vines growing on various clays, marls, and sands.” More specifically, Heucq’s terroir is defined by a layer of “green illite,” a crystalline-mineral clay that is not found anywhere else in Champagne. The illite brings out the purity of the Meunier.
