The grapes used for the vinification of this noble Champagne of the French house Lallier are 30% Chardonnay and 70% Pinot Noir vinified in white. It is a cuvée specially assembled with a selection of Grand Cru de Champagne and collected in an artisanal way that has allowed us to elaborate this "BUILDING". To have a profile of responsibility and identity, we used ancestral designs with cork caps held by staples, to enjoy the beautiful aroma of cork and a specific aging on the lees in the depths of the cellars of the Maison lallier. All this requires a very meticulous and manual involvement of the domestic artisans to put in place these fasteners and staples and then remove them by hand many years later, when it disintegrates "in flight". Another characteristic of this product is the refined aroma and texture, as well as its delicate and creamy effervescence, which allow us to break it down with a very low sugar dosage. The vinification involves the alcoholic fermentation with Lallier yeast and then the partial malolactic fermentation of the whole Blend also composed of 2/3 of wines of the current year and 1/3 from Lallier reserve wines. The elevation then develops for 5 years in the cellar.
