Emile Herard and his son-in-law Georges Fluteau founded the house of Herard & Fluteau in 1935. Following generations of the family have inherited the dedication and flair of these two men, and the torch is now carried by Thierry Fluteau, the third generation of this Champagne producing family. The 8 hectare vineyard is situated on the Cote des Bar in the southern Aube district of the Champagne appellation. On their sunny hillsides, they grow predominantly Pinot Noir, which thrives there and is renowned for giving body and texture to the wine.

The Cuvée Prestige is Thierry’s Brut Blanc de Blancs made from 100% Chardonnay. The nature of the limestone soils in his vineyards gives the wine more of a burgundian than champagne character and thus the resulting champagne is rich and savory yet dry and refreshing. This is a champagne that can serve as an aperitif as well as an accompaniment to rich hors d’oeuvres or the main course for dinner.
