Fleury Père et Fils

Producer description of "Fleury Pere et Fils"

The Champagne House is located in the small commune of Courtenon on the upper Seine on the Côte des Bar in the Aube department in the western part of Champagne. The company was founded in 1895 by Emile Fleury and initially only processed the grapes of other winegrowers. From 1901, own viticulture was added, but the grapes were delivered to other big houses. Under his son Robert Fleury, champagne was also marketed under his own name for the first time in 1929. At that time, he was one of the few récoltants manipulants who wanted to produce a high-quality vintner 's champagne. His son Jean-Pierre Fleury (1947-2023) originally wanted to become an astronomer, but then took over his family's vineyard in 1970. The vineyards cover 13 hectares of vines, mainly planted with the leading variety Pinot Noir (85%) and Chardonnay, as well as small stocks of Pinot Blanc and Pinot Gris. Some grapes are bought in from contract winegrowers.
