Vineyard The fruit is sourced from over 20 different villages, primarily Grand Cru and Premier Cru, including the estate's own historic vineyards in Cumières and Damery. The house style is defined by a high proportion of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, providing a structural backbone and elegant lift.

Wine A favorite of Queen Victoria and King Edward VII, this "Cuvée Royale" is defined by its balance and fine mousse. It offers a fragrant nose of green apple, white peach, and citrus zest. The palate is crisp and refreshing, featuring layers of brioche and toasted almond from three years of cellar aging.
