About Champagne R. Pouillon & Fils
R. Pouillon & Fils receives visitors by appointment at 17 rue d'Aÿ in Mareuil-sur-Aÿ. The winery was founded by Roger Pouillon in 1947 and is now led by his grandson Fabrice.
What to ask about
Start with Grande Vallée, the multi-village blend, then ask whether the Solera or a parcel wine such as Chemin du Bois is available. The Solera has combined harvests since 1997. The producer grows Pinot Noir, Meunier and Chardonnay, so the comparison is broader than one grape.
The cellar difference
Fabrice Pouillon developed a method in 2004 that uses grape-derived sugar for the second fermentation, without added sucrose. The producer says the method now signs all its Champagnes. Ask how that choice works alongside wood vessels and parcel-by-parcel winemaking, then verify bottle availability when booking.
