Champagne Charles Dufour

Charles Dufour, hailing from Landreville, Aube (within proximity to Bar-sur-Seine), embodies a new generation of small Vignerons who began producing Champagne of the highest profile. Having started working in the family business in 2006, Charles began a drastic conversion of vineyard to biological, with the final process coming to fruition from the 2010 harvest. All the grapes for the new production line Charles Dufour Les Vignes du 7, are therefore strictly certified through the purist choice of Charles is not limited to the elimination of synthetic chemicals in the vineyard.

Being certified organic is particularly difficult for the Champagne due to the climatic conditions of rain and cold weather. And yet, Charles has managed to create the most natural wines full of artisan imprint. Charles only works organically but also uses natural yeast, a difficult task in sparkling wine production. Most of Dufours Pinot Blanc goes into blend Bulles de Comptoir.
