Information
About the producer

Francis Boulard and his daughter Delphine have belonged to a family of wine growers / winemakers for at least six generations. In the 1970s, the young Francis joined the company Boulard Frères and in 1975 vinification was soon entrusted to him. Maison Raymond Boulard & Fils was created in 1980. After their father died, Raymond Boulard's three children continued running the family domain together. Francis Boulard, while ensuring the vinification, is increasingly interested in grape cultivation. Eager to move towards as natural a culture as possible, he gives the field organic impetus that was reflected in the 2000s by making part of the vineyards organic. In 2009, Raymond Boulard's three children decided to pursue their career paths separately. The Raymond Boulard champagne house therefore no longer exists. Francis Boulard, his wife Jeanne and his daughter Delphine founded Champagne Francis Boulard & Fille. Together, they converted the domain to organic farming. Some of the vines are already certified but the whole domain is involved in this process. Since the outset, Francis Boulard has been trying to focus his production as far as possible on natural farming.

About the wine

The property's main cuvée, Les Murgiers, is defined by its robust texture, full flavour and generous dried fruit, citrus, white flower and white-fleshed fruit notes. It is made with Pinot Meunier cultivated on clay and limestone terroirs in the Marne Valley. The winemakers use older small oak barrels, demi-muids and foudres, allow malolactic fermentation to occur on its own and regularly stir the lees. These stages give the wine a delightful texture which will compliment characterful dishes to perfection.
