Champagne François Secondé: The Spirit of Sillery. Founded by François Secondé in the 1970s and now managed by Jérôme Groslambert, the estate cultivates 5.5 hectares in Sillery and the neighboring Grand Cru vineyards, always respecting nature through sustainable viticulture (HVE certified). With an average vine age of 40 years and a vineyard planted with two-thirds Pinot Noir and one-third Chardonnay, the estate champions authenticity and the expression of the terroir. Thanks to our meticulous work in the vineyard and the cellar, Champagne François Secondé reveals the full character of Sillery: refined in style, vibrant in character. A true ambassador of the unique identity of this Grand Cru.
Sillery: Grand Cru of Mineral Elegance
Just outside Reims, on the northern slopes of the Montagne de Reims, Sillery is a historic Grand Cru once renowned for its still wines. Today, its reputation rests on Champagnes of crystalline finesse. Deep chalk soils and ancient limestone, combined with a cooler exposure, shape wines of remarkable tension, salinity, and longevity. Pinot Noir brings depth, zest, and structure. Chardonnay adds brightness, citrus notes, and floral delicacy. The result is a rare harmony of power and elegance, the signature style of Sillery, masterfully revealed by Champagne François Secondé.
