Frerejean Frères: Author Champagne from the Côte des Blancs
Frerejean Frères is a Champagne House founded in 2005 in Avize, in the heart of the prestigious Côte des Blancs, one of the most renowned areas in Champagne for producing great Chardonnay. Inspired by the elegance and tradition of the Frerejean-Taittinger family, the winery creates Champagne of extraordinary precision, characterized by long aging on the lees, limited production, and a refined style that captivates enthusiasts, sommeliers, and Michelin-starred restaurants around the world.
Each Champagne Frerejean Frères is born from a careful selection of grapes mainly sourced from Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards in the Côte des Blancs, the Montagne de Reims, and the Vallée de la Marne. The result is a range of elegant, deep, and mineral cuvées that authentically express the terroir of Champagne.
The Philosophy of the House
The Frerejean Frères House adopts an artisanal approach focused on quality excellence. The cuvées are produced in limited quantities and aged on the lees for significantly longer periods than the requirements set by the Champagne regulations. This choice gives the wines greater aromatic complexity, an extremely fine bubble, and remarkable aging potential.
The style of the winery emphasizes elegance, balance, and purity, avoiding excessive dosage to maximize the quality of the grapes and the identity of the territory.
The Style of Frerejean Frères Champagnes
The Champagnes of the House stand out for their freshness, mineral tension, and extraordinary finesse. The Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs often plays the leading role in the cuvées, offering delicate aromas of citrus, white flowers, green apple, and pastry, accompanied by notes of hazelnut, butter, and brioche that emerge with aging.
