1 Piccolo (200ml) of NV JP Brut Cuvée Royale

Blend: 35% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir and 30% Pinot Meunier, with around 20% reserve wine.  More than 20 different villages are used, based on our own vineyards in Cumières, Damery, Hautvillers and Verneuil.

Wine Spectator: Elegant, with delicate acidity framing subtle notes of white peach, fresh flowers, dried pineapple and biscuit. Very refined in texture, with a lingering, spiced finish. (December 31, 2011)

James Suckling:  An attractive, yellow-citrus style with plenty of zesty acidity on the palate. The drive and richness here are impressive. September 2019.
