VEUVE FOURNY CUVEE R 1ER CRU BRUT NV

Style: Rocks & Minerals

Since 1955, the Fourny family has made its own Champagne. Today, Monique and Charles Fourny make delicious Champagnes from tehir 6.5 hectares. Organic farming, old vines, and oak barrels are the keys to their quick success. 4000 Champagnes, RICHARD JUHLIN

Veuve Fourny is one of Champagne¿s many under-the-radar producers that deserve to be better known. This is a superb set of wines from Emanuel and Charles-Henry Fourny. The NV Extra-Brut Cuvee R is 90% Chardonnay, 5% Pinot Noir and 5% Pinot Meunier aged in cask. This is a beautifully precise, vibrant Champagne that emerges with attractive layers of perfumed, expressive fruit wrapped around a rich, creamy finish. The presence of red grapes and oak give the wine a level of depth and richness that deftly balances the intense minerality of Vertus and the house style. ANTONIO GALLONI
