Champagne Fleury Cépages Blancs 2012 Brut Nature is a distinctive cuvée that draws its character from the nearby Chablisien terroir — a rare expression in the southern reaches of Champagne. Sourced from old vines rooted on the slopes of Champraux and Valprune, this wine delivers a profile of opulence, richness, and vibrant energy. Crafted with precision and purity, it offers a remarkable Blanc de Blancs style with deep connection to place.
Champagne Fleury Cépages Blancs 2012 Brut Nature is crafted from 86% Chardonnay and 14% Pinot Blanc, harvested in 2012. Vinification is carefully balanced: 50% in thermoregulated stainless steel tanks and 50% in oak barrels, with full malolactic fermentation. This Champagne offers fine, creamy bubbles with aromas of raisins and mirabelle. On the palate, it unfolds layers of white flowers, peach, and almonds, with a complex, elegant texture complemented by brioche and dried fruit nuances.
At Champagne Fleury, love for the land runs deep — it is a philosophy woven into the very identity of the family. For the Fleurys, caring for their vineyards is not only about respecting roots and soil, but also about creating harmony with the surrounding environment. Jean-Pierre Fleury, already a thoughtful young winemaker in the late 1960s, began to question the impact of chemical treatments in the vineyards after reading Rachel Carson’s groundbreaking Silent Spring. Determined to leave a healthy, living land for future generations, his passion for both the stars and the earth led him to embrace biodynamics in 1989 — long before it became widely known in Champagne. This philosophy is fully expressed in wines like Champagne Fleury Cépages Blancs 2012 Brut Nature — a 100% Chardonnay cuvée of great finesse and purity. Aged partly in stainless steel and oak, it reveals creamy bubbles with aromas of raisins, mirabelle, white flowers, peach and almonds, finishing with elegant layers of brioche and dried fruit. For those seeking Champagne that reflects a true sense of place and respect for nature, this is an exceptional choice.
