Benjamin Fourmon

The Path

Financial services and family stewardship meet in Benjamin Fourmon’s career, which places business discipline inside a house culture shaped by continuity. As chairman and CEO of Champagne Joseph Perrier in Châlons-en-Champagne, France, he works within a framework where wine is treated not just as output, but as inheritance. The line he carries is explicit: a commitment to wine and Champagne passed forward with values received from his ancestors.

The Work Today

Champagne Joseph Perrier in Châlons-en-Champagne is run through a role that joins management to custodianship. As chairman and CEO, Benjamin Fourmon oversees a name bound to its region, with Champagne standing as both product and family possession. The house identity depends on that balance: rooted in the place that made it, but responsible to the present conditions of running it.

Signature

Cuvée Royale Brut, Cuvée Royale Organic Extra Brut, Cuvée Royale Brut Nature, and Cuvée Royale Rosé define the range under Benjamin Fourmon’s oversight. The signatures stay within the house’s register while marking out different expressions of the same identity. Taken together, they show a cellar program that stays classical, restrained, and attentive to style.

In Their Words “This last is a fresh, pleasant and fine Champagne, with a nice minerality accompanied by equally pleasant acidity.” “The lemony finish further enhances the freshness of this champagne which can be drunk at any time of the day.”

Acclaim

Cuvée Royale Brut is the bottling Benjamin Fourmon names as the clearest expression of the Joseph Perrier style: "I would say that we can speak of the Cuvée Royale Brut which reflects the style of the Joseph Perrier house." The description is exact rather than ornamental: "This last is a fresh, pleasant and fine Champagne, with a nice minerality accompanied by equally pleasant acidity." That profile is tied to time in cellar as much as to the final blend, and Fourmon is direct about the house practice: "We preserve the tradition of 48 months of aging in cellar for the Cuvée Royale Brut."
