Product Description
Details
The NV Champagne Crucifix La Grande Reserve Extra Brut - previously known as Crucifix Grande Reserve Premier Cru Brut - is produced by Maison Crucifix Père et fils from a blend of 75% Pinot Noir and 25% Chardonnay.
The grapes are sourced from Premier Cru vineyards, 25 to 35 years of age, located in Montagne de Reims, in the Avenay-Val d'Or commune, in the heart of the AOC Champagne.
This Non-Vintage Champagne was crafted with approximately a 30% of Reserve wines. After completing secondary fermentation, the Champagne Crucifix La Grande Reserve Extra Brut was aged for 4 years minimum.
After being disgorged, this Champagne Reserve Brut was kept in the cellar for another 4 months before hitting the market.
