Joseph Perrier

Cuvée Royale 2015 | Bottle 75cl

Description

Vintage in a sunny year, Cuvée Royale 2015 Joseph Perrier offers a brilliant interpretation of the balance between freshness and richness. This Extra Brut Champagne reveals all the House's savoir-faire, with long ageing on lees and a subtle dosage of 3 g/L, for a wine that is at once complex, elegant and deliciously gastronomic.

An exceptional blend for a sunny vintage

Cuvée Royale 2015 is made from a rigorous selection of prestigious crus:

• 55% Chardonnay from Avize and Chouilly, which brings tension and finesse.
• 45% Pinot Noir from Aÿ, Ambonnay and Sacy, for structure, fruit and depth.

The 2015 vintage was marked by hot, dry weather, punctuated by intense rainfall. This weather made it possible to harvest grapes of exceptional ripeness, perfect for prolonged ageing on lees for 108 months in the Maison's historic cellars. All this is enhanced by an Extra Brut dosage of just 3 g/L, to preserve the purity and expression of the fruit.
