The estate: The two brothers Charles-Henry and Emmanuel Fourny have been at the head of the domaine Veuve Fourny since 1993. They represent the 5th family generation of this superb estate whose vines are mainly located in Vertus (Côte des Blancs). The soils are limestone, chalky and the winemaking process is very non-interventionist (native yeasts, low dosages only made with sugar from grapes, etc.). The grape varieties are more than 90% made up of Chardonnay and the vineyard has an average age of around 40-45 years. The estate produces local Champagnes offering beautiful roundness and tenderness while maintaining superb balance and very great precision. A must-know house for lovers of blanc de blanc champagnes!
