Producer

Champagne Franck Bonville

Côte des BlancsAvizeRMRMRécoltant ManipulantA grower who makes champagne only from fruit grown on their own land. This is the grower-producer category, and the strictest in terms of sourcing.Founded 1945

Franck Bonville makes Blanc de Blancs almost exclusively, from around 15 hectares of grand cru Chardonnay across Avize, Oger and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, split into 77 parcels.

The house has kept its own pace through every vintage, and the cellar still works the way it always has: one press, one tank, one decision at a time.

Everything here is allowed to settle slowly. The wines rest longer than the market asks for, and the family tastes the whole range before anything leaves the cellar.

What follows is written from visits, from bottles opened too early and a few opened at exactly the right moment.
