Canard-Duchêne is a champagne house, situated in the heart of the Champagne vineyards. It was founded in 1868, and is one of the most prominent Houses or grandes marques in Champagne. It is now part of the Thiénot group, owner of its own label Champagne Thiénot, plus Joseph Perrier and Marie Stuart.
Canard-Duchêne exports to many countries across the world, including the United Kingdom, the United States of America, India, and Japan. However, it is not as popular anywhere as it is in its homeland where a bottle of Canard-Duchêne is opened every 15 seconds.
Probably because ‘Canard’ translates to ‘Duck’ in English, there is a myth circulating that connects the champagne house with ducks, and some suggest that 'Canard-Duchêne' translates to ‘Duck of Oak’. However, this is a misunderstanding. The House was founded by Victor Canard and Léonie Duchêne, who gave their names to the champagne house.
