Wildekrans Wine Estate

Wine Estate is a picturesque 1 000 hectare estate tucked away in the beautiful Botrivier Valley.

What is now an estate that produces international award-winning wines, Wildekrans was originally established as a mixed farming operation. It was soon realised that the cool terroir of this picturesque farm in the Botrivier Valley, had all the key components to produce grapes of the highest quality expressions.

The winemaking process, similarly, adheres to principles of low intervention with a focus on capturing and retaining the essence of the vine and its terroir. The Wildekrans winemaking philosophy is based on the premise that great wines begin in the vineyard. Consequently, infinite care is taken to match varietals to suitable soil types. The vines are thereafter nurtured to produce low yielding crops of pronounced structure and fruit intensity. The estate is planted to around 70 hectares of red and white varietals with future plantings set to enrich and balance the portfolio.

The history of the Maison De Venoge begins in 1837 when Swiss businessman Henri-Marc De Venoge founded the Maison De Champagne De Venoge in the French municipality of Mareuil-sur-Ay. A man of innate entrepreneurial skills, De Venoge is the creator of the first ever illustrated label in the history of , heralding a golden era of advertising and labels.

Since then, throughout its history Maison de Venoge has been a worldwide ambassador for Champagne for over 180 years, with refined products of absolute excellence and continuity in nobility:

For their introductory Cordon Bleu range started in 1851, the Maison chose the blue ribbon of the Knights of the Order of the Holy Spirit as its emblem one of the most iconic labels of all time, a smooth and crisp expression of elegance to ravish most.

The symbol of the Maison, the Princes cuvées was designed in 1858 in honour of the Dutch royal house, with wines of freshness and finesse. Now revived, it stands out for the elegant bottle that recalls the crystal decanters used by the European aristocracy to serve Champagne in the early 20th century.

At the top of the range, the Louis XV cuvée is named after King Louis XV who by the decree of May 25th 1728 authorized the wines of Champagne to be marketed as such and transported in bottles, thereby marking the birth of Champagne as we know it today. Produced exclusively from grapes from the best Grand Cru villages and only in the best vintages, it is bottled in signature Decanters and represents the Quintessence of the De Venoge House in power, tension, length and complexity.

Born again, the House is now located on the prestigious Avenue de Champagne in Epernay, at number 33. A former Hotel restored in 2015, it now boasts boutique guest rooms, a vibey boutique bar, as well as a newly installed stunning statue of Louis XV for you to cheer with about Champagne!

Wine Advocate Robert Parker: “Cellar master Isabelle Tellier is doing a great job; there is not a single disappointing wine in the current portfolio that starts with the easy-drinking Cordon Bleu and offers some sophisticated cuvées in the Princes range. de Venoge is—despite its glorious but volatile history (in terms of frequent changes of ownership)—still an underrated rising star in the Champagne region.
