Franck Bonville Pur Oger 2018 comes from 2 plots located in Oger: Les Rumigny and Les Noyerots. The terroir of Oger, Grand Cru, is made up of a part nestled in the hollow of a valley between Avize and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, where the "Les Rumigny" plot is located, and a part at the bottom of the hills on the Noyerots plateau. It is the duality of this terroir that the House wanted to highlight. A generous and complex champagne.

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. Authenticity, finesse, and purity are the key qualities that define Franck Bonville’s cuvées.
The champagnes from the house are made exclusively from vines planted in prestigious terroirs, mainly classified as Grand Cru and Premier Cru, allowing for the production of wines with great elegance. The house focuses on sustainable viticulture and meticulous winemaking to produce champagnes that combine freshness, complexity, and aromatic richness. The cuvées are aged for extended periods in the cellar to fully express the potential of the grapes and the terroirs.
The Franck Bonville Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs is one of the flagship cuvées of the house, offering vibrant freshness accompanied by delicate citrus and white flower notes. Other cuvées, such as the Franck Bonville Millésimé, provide additional richness and depth, appreciated by connoisseurs. Franck Bonville champagnes are cherished for their finesse and ability to delight the most discerning palates.
Deutz Rosé Millésimé is a seductive Champagne, with its deliciously coppery pink hue evoking elegance. The nose is expressive, reflecting the power of Pinot Noir at its peak. The palate is pervaded by floral and fruity aromas of a basket of red berries, with a sustained structure. The texture is silky and the finish persistent, prolonging the experience.
The year 2015 was declared a Veuve Clicquot vintage and became the 67th of the House since the creation of the first vintage, by Madame Clicquot in 1810. This wine reveals the flavors of an exceptional year. Eternal signature of the Vintage cuvée, the structure is angular and fleshy, the pinot noir playing its role of building. Thus, all in balance, Veuve Clicquot Vintage...
Bollinger Special Cuvée is a Champagne mostly blended with reserve wines, part of which has been kept in magnums for 5 to 15 years. The maturation time is therefore much higher than the appellation standards.
Larmandier-Bernier Vieille Vigne du Levant comes from an exceptional plot in a place called “Bourron du Levant” facing south-east. The vines are between 56 and over 80 years old. The deep roots and the diversity of the old vines contribute to the complexity of the wine. They are, like all the vineyards, cultivated naturally to obtain the perfect maturity.
Egly-Ouriet Blanc de Noirs Vieilles Vignes is a Cuvée from a Pinot Noir vine, lieu-dit “Les Crayères”, planted in 1946 and 1947 on an exceptional terroir in the Ambonnay vineyard classified as a Grand Cru.
Franck Bonville Pur Mesnil 2018 is a Champagne from 3 plots located in Mesnil-sur-Oger: Le Tilleul, Les Zailleux and Les Hautes Mottes. These lieux-dits, where the chalk is flush, help to create saline and tense wines, characteristic of this renowned cru.
Franck Bonville Pur Avize 2018 is a Champagne from 3 plots: Les Avats, Les Maladries and Les Chapelles. These lieux-dits, representative of the Avize terroir, are located in the heart of the village, a few dozen meters from the Maison Frank Bonville.
