FrèreJean Frères Champagne 1er Cru Hussards 2012

Storia della Tenuta

FrèreJean Frères is a family-run Champagne house dedicated to crafting fine cuvées that showcase the elegance and purity of Premier Cru terroirs. Focused on long aging and low dosage, the estate emphasizes finesse, precision, and tradition. The vintage **”Hussards” 2012** pays tribute to the light cavalry soldiers, symbolizing strength and refinement, much like the character of this exceptional Champagne.

Terroir

The grapes are sourced from Premier Cru classified vineyards in the Montagne de Reims and Côte des Blancs. Chalky limestone soils and cool climate conditions bring minerality, freshness, and balance, essential for crafting a vintage Champagne with great aging potential and complexity.
