From this winery
- Start up year: 1856
Champagne is always full of emotions, the passion of the craftsman-winemaker, who grows vines on a magnificent Vertus Premier Cru terroir. A treasure which we have been pampering since 1856. We are therefore the 5th generation to produce champagne wines.
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
