Description
This wine is called «R» as in Roger, one of the founders of our house. Entirely vinified in small oak containers, it has been waiting in our cellars for 4 years. The Veuve Fourny house has a unique know-how for old-fashioned winemaking. Opulence and smoothness: a great Blanc de Blancs gourmet champagne, for exceptional dishes. White truffle is the best tribute you can pay it. Great ripe soft cheeses would also be a perfect match.

From our grandfather Albert and his son Roger and Madame Veuve Fourny, we have inherited know-how as well as ancient vineyards, including the Clos Faubourg Notre - Dame, a rarity in Champagne.
Us brothers took over the Family House in 1993. Through our personal experiences and our very different personalities, we have jointly decided the style of our cuvées.
Our collection of Champagnes highlights our Premier Cru terroir of the Côte des Blancs in a curated style, with an equal share of elegance and freshness. We do our best, from the vineyards right to the cellars, to extract the purest expression of the grapes and the terroir in order to produce champagne with a low dosage. Read more
