This cuvee combines Pinot Noir's power, Pinot Meunier's suppleness and Chardonnay's elegance to give Elexium radiance and lightness. 30-35% of reserve wines (from previous years) are incorporated into the blending.
Its aging provides beautiful citrus fruits notes, white fruits and a lightly gold color. It is beautifully intense, fresh and silky with good persistence.
This cuvee can be served from the aperitif to the dessert. We recommend that you enjoy with poultry, smoked salmon, white fruits or sorbet.
"Citrus, saline and floral bouquet. The palate brings notes of dark fruit, nougat and a touch of umami. Finishes lengthily."

Racy, firm and gently effervescent, with fresh pear and citrus flavors and a subtle note of peppery spice. The juicy citrus and racy mineral flavors carry through the tangy, persistent finish. - Josh Raynolds"

A blend of 50% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir and 20% Meunier from 20 selected vineyards throughout Champagne and aged en tirage for 2+ years; 7-8 g/L RS"
