Fortunate Champagne, successfully associating marketing and search for quality, blending and expression from the terroir, international groups and small winemakers. Charles-Henry and Emmanuel Fourny, young and without any complex, are a perfect illustration of this new ambition by small champagne producers who want to give their own personal interpretation of their Premier Cru de Vertus. Located at the southern tip of the famous Côte des Blancs, Vertus lies on intensely calcareous subsoil. Whereas Champagne is usually known as a blended wine, the Fourny brothers are exploring all the nuances of their production. Among their various cuvées, “R” has to be the most accomplished: made mainly from chardonnays vinified in oak casks, it is a splendid wine with tiny bubbles, on a very long palate, with subtle and delicate notes and a wide range of aromas, from chalk to lemon peel. A highly refined treasure with good value for money. BETTANE and DESSEAUVE |
