Iconic Grand Cru in the Grande Vallée de la Marne (~367 ha, 89% Pinot Noir, 8% Chardonnay, 3% Pinot Meunier, clay-chalk, south-facing slopes): Pinot Noir (local Pinot Vert Doré) is the signature king — exceptional body, delicate nose, incredible power and depth, signature finesse and structure for complex assemblages, the only Grand Cru of the Grande Vallée. South-facing slopes, diverse terroirs in small valleys.
The wine region of Champagne

Three grapes blended or solo: fleshy Pinot Noir (38%), fruity Meunier (33%), chiselled Chardonnay (28%). From straight Blanc de Blancs to vinous Blanc de Noirs, from non-vintage Brut to age-worthy Millésimé. AOC since 1927, 34,300 ha on chalk, 17 Grands Crus and 44 Premiers Crus.
