Produced from our oldest Chardonnay vines, this « Grand Brut Rilly » expresses a great aromatic richness due to the superior quality in sugar of these grapes, a consequence of the voluntary ageing of these parcels. A major asset for this cuvée!
The freshness and the delicate lemony finish makes this champagne the ideal companion for seafood. Magnums are also available.
