Excellent visit down to the bottom of the Cotes de Blancs; to see Charles Fourny of Veuve Fourny et Fils; fifth generation maker in Vertus; 500 ha region and one of the largest appellations in Champagne; with his passionate double, brother Emmanuel; tasting modern grower Champagne based on chardonnay; with texture to avoid high dosage; typically 3-6; and one zero; time and preciseness make the difference; plus 40% reserve wines for palatability; this is the House NV; #champagne #vertus #veuvefourny #grandereserve #blancdeblancs #uncorkedandcultivated #wineandfoodtour #france2015 — 9 years ago

My favourite Fendant wine, 100% Chasselas grapes. One of the best Swiss wines I know. When bought at the Domaine you pay approx 16 Swiss francs, or € 13,50. — 9 years ago

Pale gold in color, day bright, clear, slight evidence of gas. Medium concentration and viscosity.
Nose of sweet lemon, ripe white peach, ripe yellow delicious apple, slight floral/white blossom, evidence of chalky inorganic earth.
Palate confirms nose. Crisp, slight effervescence, med plus acid, med alcohol, med plus(ish) complexity, med plus finish.
Refreshing, light, and clean. — 9 years ago
