Recognition for an authentic champagne
| From a family of winemakers established in the Marne Valley since the 19th century, the House of Bourgeois is perpetuating the tradition and developing the estate with a remarkable sense of innovation. Although it entered the wholesale market in 1987, this House is nonetheless essentially involved in production. It is one of the rare estates to use traditional winemaking methods without malalactic fermentation, resulting in champagnes with a closer, natural affinity to the fruit.
From the ten hectares owned outright, Michel Bourgeois and his son, Hugues, produce wines that have often received special mentions and awards both for their authenticity and creativity. _ In recent years, with a particular wealth of trophies obtained by the House, the House of Bourgeois has won awards in London, Montreal and Tokyo. | This success confirms the results and scores obtained in French competitions and in the best guides, including the Guide Hachette des Vins. Note that Champagne Bourgeois publishes a magazine entitled *"Les Belles Vues" twice a year. It is for all the fans of fine champagnes who are also enthralled by the history of this mythical wine, how it is made and the customs and traditions of this region of Champagne. *This magazine will be sent to you free of charge on request |
