BLANC DE BLANCS - GRAND CRU MAGNUM
This cuvée, created in 2015 to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Maison Frerejean Frères, is now revealed to mark two decades of excellence. Sourced from the Grand Crus of the Côte des Blancs, it embodies the essence of our terroir, with a unique touch that has been infused into it. In connection with the family’s Burgundy roots, it was aged in old Burgundy barrels that previously held Grand Cru Chardonnays from the prestigious Corton-Charlemagne terroir. Elevated by the work of time, this anniversary cuvée unveils an incredible singularity, carried by unparalleled complexity.
