Equilibre Premier Cru
"Calling this cuvée équilibre was a must for us, as it was the first word that came to mind when we tasted it."Virginie TaittingerVirginie T. Équilibre Premier Cru Champagne – La Petite Montagne de Reims
This cuvée is created exclusively from Premier Cru grapes from the lesser-known but exquisite area La Petite Montagne de Reims , and truly lives up to its name.
A harmonious blend of 50% Pinot Noir and 50% Chardonnay produces a perfectly balanced wine with a velvety texture and a fresh flavor profile. The palate reveals delicate aromas of white peaches along with subtle notes of pastry – a hallmark of this unique part of Champagne.
The wine has been aged for over six years on its lees, in true house style, giving it a generous opening and elegant development in the glass. It is a versatile wine that goes well with everything from fresh seafood to tender white meat.
