A FAMILY PASSION
The three Frerejean-Taittinger brothers build on the deep entrenched family heritage and local expertise to create craft Champagne inspired by modern luxury. Frerejean Frères is found in the most distinguish dining restaurants, prestige hotels and luxury outlets around the world.
KNOW-HOW
Frerejean Frères is a Champagne of character; both complex and elegant, produced from some of the best parcels across the Côte des Blancs. The production process honors the land, with a low-chemical approach, using minimal pesticides and low levels of sulfites in their cuvées. Chef de Caves - Didier Pierson hails from a long line of growers in Avize and meticulously hand-selects the grapes for the champagne.
CRAFT CHAMPAGNES
Crafting a bottle of Frerejean Frères takes at least five years, and up to twelve years for some cuvées. This immense dedication to the aging process allows minimal dosage for the finer notes of the terroir to shine through. Frerejean Frères Champagnes are wines of luxury and character; both complex and elegant. The three brothers take their time...
CÔTES DES BLANCS
Rooted in their terroir of the Côte des Blancs, Frerejean Frères uses small-scale production methods that respect the land. In their quest for authenticity and purity, Frerejean Frères only works with varietals from Premier and Grand Cru vineyards. Only the best grapes are selected with scrupulous care.
A VILLAGE GRAND CRU
Maison Frerejean Frères is nestled between the rolling vineyards in the Grand Cru village of Avize. Renowned for the chalky, oceanic soils, the vines of Avize produce a uniquely mineral driven Chardonnay, exceptionally characterised in Frerejean Frères cuvées.
