The Franck Bonville House is a family-owned estate renowned for its exceptional champagnes, located in the Côte des Blancs region of Champagne. With over 60 years of history, the house stands out for its expertise in producing champagnes made primarily from Chardonnay, the emblematic grape of the region.
