Winery:
Champagne House of Duval-Leroy continues to be 100% family-owned. As one of the last independent family wineries in Champagne, the family has perfected the quality of both their non-vintage Brut as well as their famed vintage Champagne, which can pride itself to be the largest collection. By cultivating the 200ha of vineyards in villages classified as ‘Premier Cru’ and ‘Grand Cru’, Duval-Leroy is recognized for its consistency and is a favorite choice of drink on special and celebratory occasions around the world. Moreover, as a result of its exceptional quality and reputation, Duval-Leroy is the most poured Champagne at Michelin-Star rated restaurants today. For her contributions to Champagne and her remarkable success-story with Duval-Leroy, owner Carol Duval-Leroy was named “most influential woman in Champagne” by the highly influential RVF in 2013.
