Product Description
Details
The Champagne Crucifix Les Craies Blanc de Blancs, previously known as Crucifix Blanc de Blancs Premier Cru Brut, is produced by Maison Crucifix Père et fils.
An exquisite Non-Vintage Champagne, it was solely crafted from 25 to 35-year-old Premier Cru Chardonnay vineyards located in Montagne de Reims, in the Avenay-Val d'Or commune, AOC Champagne.
Meticulously crafted following the traditional method, after completing secondary fermentation this Non-Millésimé Brut Champagne was aged for 4 years in the cellar.
Once the process was completed, the Champagne Crucifix Les Craies Blanc de Blancs was disgorged 4 months before hitting the market.
This remarkable Brut Champagne is refined and gently mineral.
