Holding 3 litres, this format allows the wine to evolve with greater stability and slower integration, resulting in a finer mousse and a more cohesive structure compared to standard bottles. The blend reflects the house’s classic non vintage style, combining Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier sourced from a wide range of vineyards across Champagne. Chardonnay brings lift and precision, Pinot Noir contributes body and structure, and Pinot Meunier adds fruit and approachability.
Parcel by parcel vinification ensures control over each component, with fermentation taking place in stainless steel to preserve clarity and freshness. A proportion of reserve wines is incorporated into the blend, adding depth and maintaining consistency across releases. Maturation on lees develops texture and aromatic complexity, building notes of brioche, pastry, and light toast alongside the core fruit. In this larger format, these elements integrate more gradually, creating a smoother and more refined profile.
The overall style is balanced and accessible, combining freshness with a subtle richness and a well integrated structure. It sits comfortably between precision and roundness, making it versatile across a wide range of occasions.
