Description

France / Champagne

The house of Frerejean Frères was founded in 2005 in Avize, a Champagne village classified as Grand Cru. It is only 10 hectares and strives to preserve and respect the unique terroir. It is important to the Frerejean-Taittinger brothers that the traditional methods of champagne production are respected, but that there is also room for innovation. Named after Napoleon Bonaparte's light cavalry, which consisted of hussars, this cuvée is powerful and expressive. The grapes for this champagne come from vines over 40 years old in Premier and Grand Cru locations. 2012 is considered the reference year of the last decade.

Champagne Frerejean Frères

Champagne Frerejean Frères The founding trio of the Maison, consisting of brothers Guillaume, Richard and Rodolphe Frerejean-Taittinger, initially began producing champagne for their family and closest friends. The unparalleled quality of their creations quickly spread and won the hearts of discerning connoisseurs. Today, the champagne house enjoys the honor of serving in the exclusive role of official champagne supplier for the ceremonial awarding of the coveted Michelin stars. Find out more The Frerejean-Taittinger brothers grew up with a love and respect for the Champagne tradition. Rodolphe was baptized with champagne at the tender age of one and enjoyed his first sip of this enchanting drink at the age of eight. The taste, the energy, the pure magic of champagne captivated him from the very beginning. Under the guidance of his brothers and the mentorship of the renowned Chef de Caves, Didier Pierson - a fifth-generation winegrower from Avize - Rodolphe embarked on a journey of discovery and explored the diverse terroirs that make up Champagne. The journey began with the brothers making Champagne exclusively for their family and friends, but the quality of their exceptional wines quickly spread and led them into the world of business in 2005. Their main motivation was to create complex and elegant champagnes with a clear link to the Champagne region.
