Created in 1859 by the alliance of the Duval and the Leroy families, Champagne Duval-Leroy won
glowing acclaim at the Universal Exhibitions of Barcelona, Monaco, Moscow and Paris between 1888
and 1893, praised by critics for its charm, complexity and subtlety and admired by connoisseurs for its
distinctive character and elegance.

 

Shortly after 1911, when the champenois area experienced its first revolution with the adoption of the
official classification of champagne vineyards, Raymond Duval-Leroy created the first Premier Cru
Champagne which he called " Fleur de Champagne " in homage to the finesse and the aroma of white
flowers reminiscent of the grape vine blossom he discerned when he first tasted it. Nowadays this cuvee,
still produced in Vertus, is exclusively available on the best tables and from the best wine retailers.

 


In 1994, Carol Duval-Leroy, always in search of precision and improvement, made Duval-Leroy the first
Champagne House to receive the certification standard ISO 9002.
Since 2000, the vineyard teams have reduced by more than 50% the use of weed-killers and the vineyard
is managed by sustainable vine growing.

 

 

The Duval-Leroy vineyard comprises 200 hectares under cultivation, i.e.
one third of the requirements of the House. (Only 3000 hectares out of
the total production area of 30 000 hectares belong to negociants). The
other two thirds come from the acquisition of grapes and/or juice from
more than 100 external press centres.
The Company’s five press centres are spread across the whole Champagne
area.

 


The vinification of all wines (produced from grapes from the Company’s
own vineyards or from bought-in grapes) is carried out exclusively at the
Duval-Leroy winery in Vertus.

 


Duval-Leroy has a presence in all villages classified as “Grand Cru” in
the C?te des Blancs and also in most villages classified as “Grands Crus”
in the Montagne de Reims. 40% of the total production of our own
vineyards comes from Grands Crus and Premiers Crus areas.
Duval-Leroy employees are always present at the different sites during
the harvest: this is extremely important for the control of the quality of
the grapes (necessary for the elaboration of quality wines).
