This cuvee is composed of 35% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir, and 30% Pinot Meunier, with an additional 20% of reserve wines. It is aged for 3 years before being released and has a 7g/L dosage. This champagne offers excellent length, freshness, balance, elegance, and lightness. On the nose, there are delicate and complex notes, with a fruity touch of green apple and vine peach. The palate boasts a roundness and refreshing finish, making it a true representation of the House style that Joseph Perrier has been known for since 1825. This champagne has a rich history, having been selected for royal courts such as Queen Victoria and Edward VII.
"An attractive, yellow-citrus style with plenty of zesty acidity on the palate. The drive and richness here are impressive. Drink now."
