Chandon

One of the most revered brands in sparkling wine evolved its classic winery into a sumptuous home that refreshes the familiar and graciously welcomes discovery.

After fifty years as a Valley staple, Domain Chandon modernized its name and ’70s-era flagship, inviting spontaneity with energized styling and more inclusive access. Released from the bar, tasting now flows through an opened, gently terraced interior dotted with curvaceous couches, across a breezeblocked patio, into a garden of sailcloth canopies and redwood decks ringing century-strong oaks. The easy roam from living room to backyard entices the cultivated and the curious, keeping character consistent as it forwards an age.

Intimate with Chandon’s production after a decade of helping advance and expand, we tightly tuned daily logistics to keep hosting unperturbed throughout construction. Holding history steady through thoughtful updates, we revived the gleam in the fir ceilings, leveled and tiled the floors, pulled walls and ramped rises, and revived the groves with rich soil and swaying grasses. Like a dear friend with a new look, a more relaxed refinement knows comfort is the real luxury.
