GRANDE RÉSERVE
La Grande Réserve is the reflection of a harmonious blend of the three iconic grape varieties of Champagne. Crafted from the finest parcels, primarily in Premier Cru and Grand Cru, this cuvée first unveils delicate pastry notes, before revealing elegant floral aromas. Patience and expertise come together during an extended aging period of four years in our cellars, allowing La Grande Réserve to reach its ideal maturity, where each note expresses itself with generosity.
