The Roulot-Fournier estate has 8 hectares of vineyards located on the hills of the village of Festigny in the Marne Valley, cultivated and worked manually all year round by the owners Richard and Nathalie Roulot, third-generation winemakers, assisted by 2 employees for a total production of 25,000 bottles per year. 50% of the vines are more than 25 years old and 50% more than 15 years old, and they are allocated on clay-limestone soils. All fermentations take place in stainless steel and enamelled steel tanks.
