Maison Canard-Duchêne plays a starring role at the 2024 César Awards

In February in Ludes, when the hillsides are decked out in winter colours and tiny frost crystals illuminate the vineyards, everything seems wonderfully calm in this Champagne region. And yet, underneath this apparent tranquillity, a small object in the shape of a statuette is stirring things up. Cinema has just made its entrance…

Reaching for the stars...

The world of cinema is already buzzing with excitement ahead of the 49th César awards ceremony, to be held on 23 February 2024 at the Olympia in Paris, to honour the best films of the past year. To accompany this major event, Champagne House Canard-Duchêne has been chosen to be the official supplier to the Académie des Arts et Techniques du Cinéma in 2024. Coveted by the biggest names, this association is naturally an honour for the House of Canard-Duchêne, but it is also a genuine recognition of long and fruitful work on the road to excellence.

Sharing art and culture...

A blend of family history and Champagne identity, the House Canard-Duchêne is the bearer of a rich heritage that keeps exacting standards at the forefront of its oenological development. Jérôme Durand, the House’s Managing Director, was not mistaken when he said: “The seventh art brings together talents, just as the production of Champagne wines is a blend of crus and vintages to bring out the best in them”. Already a supplier to the Angoulême Francophone Film Festival in 2023, the great House will once again be associated with a moment of passion and sharing.

Inspiring unforgettable moments of sharing...

An emotional ceremony beyond compare, the Césars are a moment as eagerly awaited as they are dreaded by professionals in the 7th art, and by all film fans. This major event in the world of the visual arts stirs up the hopes of the humblest of the humblest to one day reach the firmament of notoriety, to hold the polished bronze trophy in their hands. Perfectly tailored dinner jackets, evening gowns, extravagant or chic, elegance will take many forms at the ceremony. But one thing will be common to all: genuine passion and the joy that accompanies it. These are the cardinal values that resonate loud and clear at Maison Canard-Duchêne, which cultivates moments of sharing and happiness.

The ultimate tasting experience

To mark its debut at this international event, the House Canard-Duchêne has selected several cuvées from its range, including Cuvée Léonie, a harmonious, well-balanced brut white that emphasises the freshness and original purity of the fruit. All that’s left to do is to list the names of the wines you’ll be tasting in the aromas of a renowned champagne.
