House Roger Coulon is located north of Montagne de Reims in the village of Vrigny, and is the result of a long family history dating back to 1806
Isabelle and Eric Coulon are today at the helm of Domaine, accompanied by their children Edgar and Louise who represent the ninth generation. A vineyard that has always been run with enthusiasm and passion in the deepest respect for the land and the vines, giving birth to Champagnes resolutely apart.
House Roger Coulon is located on the village of Vrigny in Premier Cru north of Montagne de Reims. The vineyard has grown to 10 hectares of vines, which have been farmed using organic methods since 2022, as well as Agroforestry. In fact, the Coulon family takes to heart the pRéserver ecosystem reigning within their vineyards and the self-sufficiency of the soil that makes such harmony possible. Each grape variety flourishes here, including of course Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier.
When it comes to vinification, the wines are made without chemical inputs, and are neither filtered nor fined. Maison Roger Coulon is currently validating a historic approach for the Champagne region, that of managing a vineyard in Premier Cru exclusively in a natural way.

Maison Roger Coulon's Blanc de noirs - Franc de Pieds 2014 is much more than a Champagne: it's a vibrant interpretation of a unique terroir and a memorable year. This cuvée sublimates the heritage of historic grape varieties, from an exceptional locality, "Les Linguets" in Gueux, where Meuniers francs de pieds, planted over 70 years ago, thrive in singular conditions.
This vintage is composed of equal parts of Meuniers and Pinots Noirs. The Meunier, planted on fine sands without rootstock, draws its vitality from well-aerated soil, giving this cuvée a refined Rare expression.
2014 was a year marked by carefully controlled climatic challenges: after a mild winter and clement spring, the cool, wet summer demanded constant vigilance. The harvest, which began on September 10, revealed perfectly ripe grapes rich in sugar, giving birth to a harmonious, structured vintage with remarkable intensity.
The grapes come from the "Limons" plot in Vrigny (Pinot Noir) and the "Linguets" plot in Gueux (Meunier), located between 100 and 120 meters above sea level, cultivated using organic viticulture and agroforestry methods. The Thanetian sand soils and North/South-East exposure offer a deep, subtle aromatic palette.
The Blanc de noirs - Franc de Pieds 2014 shows absolute respect for the fruit:
- Gentle pressing with a 4000 kg pneumatic press.
- Spontaneous alcoholic fermentation at low temperature with indigenous yeasts, without chaptalization or malolactic fermentation.
- Aged on lees (whole then fine) for 10 months, followed by 8 years' ageing on laths in the underground cellars of Domaine.
- Precise dosage of 3 g/L, underlining the purity of the blend.
To the eye: A brilliant, golden color, evoking the richness and depth of this Champagne.
On the nose: Complex, intense notes of ripe fruit, citrus and undergrowth.
On the palate: A subtle attack, followed by elegant structure and persistent freshness, revealing remarkable depth.
The label embodies the winemaker's deep attachment to his land and heritage. The Vrigny vineyard register illustrates the parcels that make up this exceptional cuvée, a true ode to craftsmanship and terroir.
