This new cuvée from the Pascal Lejeune estate captivates from the very first whiff, with its intense, complex, and delicate aroma. Aging the still wine in barrels for several months lends it a rounder texture while preserving the freshness and minerality of a champagne. Its fruity and full-bodied palate, with dominant notes of mandarin and spices (cinnamon, ginger), makes it a true champagne for fine dining.

About the estate:
When Pascal and Sandrine took over the estate in 1995, they set out to breathe new life into it: the vineyard expanded to 4.4 hectares, and sustainable viticulture became the standard practice. Their son, Thibaut, joined them on the estate in the summer of 2015, thus carrying on the winemaking expertise and the family’s commitment to the estate.
