The Fourny brothers farm close to four acres of 60-year-old chardonnay vines for this Brut Nature, aging it on the lees for 30 months. They present it without dosage, allowing the deep flavors to show in all their brisk intensity. It feels youthful, with notes of lemon, pear and chalk in mouthwatering tension. A clean, fresh Champagne to enjoy with raw shellfish, or to cellar for several years. ... More details

The NV Brut Blanc de Blancs Premier Cru Nature is 100% Chardonnay bottled with no dosage. It is a gorgeous, striking wine endowed with layers of pure, crystalline fruit. Mint, flower, sweet herbs and minerals are some of the notes that meld together on the seamless finish. This is a pure, utterly impeccable wine.

This too is beautifully elegant with strikingly well-layered aromas of pungent yeast, quinine, green apple and a whisper of petrol. This impression of refinement is enhanced by the notably fine mousse supporting the middle weight flavors that culminate in a crisp, citrusy and youthfully austere finish. This could easily be enjoyed now but I would be inclined to hold it for at least another 2 to 3 years first.

Bright and well-balanced, this is satiny in texture, with the mousse and mouthwatering acidity carrying flavors of pear tart, lime blossom and candied ginger. Offers a crunchy, smoke-tinged finish.
Winery
Made only from Chardonnay Vieilles Vignes which is harvested by hand, Brut Nature is a champagne with no dosage. In harmony with its citrus notes, finesse, fruity and balanced palate, it is bursting with intensity and freshness. It will bring out the richness and diversity of seafood at the start of any meal.

Varietal: Champagne Blend

There are few areas in the world with a reputation quite as famous and respected as that of Champagne in France, and almost every wine region on earth has imitated or has been influenced by the careful process mastered by the wineries of Champagne. However, it is in the grape varietals which thrive in this region where the secrets to the Champagne's success can be found – the acidic, flavorful Chardonnay grapes meeting the characterful Pinot Noir varietal, and coming together to produce something wonderful in the bottle. There are actually seven varietals allowed by French wine law for the production of Champagne wines, all of which are used by wineries to accentuate each others finest points and maintain the reputation of this very special region, the home to some extremely high quality grapes.

Region: Champagne

The beautiful north-easterly region of Champagne in France is famous around the world for the production of the exquisite sparkling white wines which characterize the region. All over the globe, bottles of wine from Champagne are celebrated and enjoyed, and their fame has come about through generations of expertise and experimentation, and a dedication to quality which raises the bar for producers of sparkling wines everywhere. The vast majority of grapes grown in this special region are of the Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Petit Meunier varietals, the principle grapes used for the production of Champagne sparkling white wines. The region itself is far cooler than many other important French wine regions, but this hasn't stopped the dozens of wineries in Champagne from making their distinctive and much-loved produce.

Country: France

France is renowned across the globe for its quality wines and the careful expertise which goes into making them, but what is truly remarkable about this relatively small country is the vast range of wines it produces in such huge amounts each year. Not only are the finest red wines in the world said to come from the beautiful regions of Bordeaux and Burgundy, but elsewhere in the country we find the Champagne region, and areas such as the Rhone Valley and the Loire, whose white wines consistently receive awards and accolades by the plenty. This range is a result of the great variety of climatic conditions and terrain found in France, coupled with generations of wine makers working within single appellations. Their knowledge of specific terroirs and grape varieties has, over time, perfected the production of wines within their region, and the end results continue to impress the world to this day.
