Oger

Location: France

Region: Champagne

Nested under: Champagne

Oger is a Côte des Blancs Grand Cru village closely linked with Chardonnay. It sits near Le Mesnil-sur-Oger and shares the broader chalk-based blanc de blancs identity, though it is often described in a slightly more generous register. Expect citrus, apple, white flowers, chalk, and lees-derived creaminess in the mental model. Oger is a helpful label cue for drinkers who want Chardonnay-led Champagne with Côte des Blancs precision and a rounder edge.

Notable Rules

Grand Cru village in Champagne's 100% village-classification tier; it remains within the Champagne AOC rather than a separate AOC.
