Roger Coulon
Isabelle & Eric Coulon, 8th generation of the Coulon family, produce top-notch Champagne from Vrigny and other surrounding villages in the northwestern corner of the Montagne de Reims. The family owns 10HA of vineyards, virtually all divided over one hundred and five plots in five Premier Cru villages, including Vrigny, Coulommes and Pargny. With an average production of just 90,000 bottles per year, the focus at the Coulon house is on quality, and anything but on quantity. The vineyards, all sélection massa, are on average about 40 years old. Herbal, insect and pesticide use are totally forbidden here, respect for nature is paramount. Each of the one hundred and five plots is individually verified, all fermentations are always obtained by natural & indigenous yeasts. If you ask us, this is a domain that we will hear a lot more about very soon!
