The Réserve cuvée, available here in magnum format, is a blend of 28% Pinot Noir, 29% Chardonnay, and 43% Meunier. The Pinot Noirs from the Montagne de Reims and the Grande Vallée de la Marne bring their characteristic structure, while the Chardonnays lend elegance and freshness. Finally, the Meuniers from the Marne Valley and the southern slopes of Épernay add a generous, indulgent touch.

After extended aging for 50 months on lees, this Extra Brut cuvée reveals unparalleled freshness and finesse.
