Founded in 1806 and passed down through nine generations, Champagne Roger Coulon is a grower-producer of the old kind — family-owned, small, and making wine only from its own vines.

The house is based in the Premier Cru village of Vrigny, on the Montagne de Reims, and works around eleven hectares divided into more than one hundred parcels. That fragmentation is the whole point: each parcel is vinified separately to keep its own identity before assembly.

Farming is sustainable and organic in practice, with real attention to biodiversity. Some of the vines are over sixty years old, rooted in sand and chalk, and give fruit of unusual character and purity.

The style is defined by restraint: careful, patient work in the cellar and a very low dosage, which lets the terroir speak rather than the sugar. Orchard fruit and dried flowers over brioche and a chalky note; precise and finely textured on the palate, closing long and saline.
