Cuvée Signature - Premier Cru

Blend: 50% Pinot Noir, 20% Pinot Meunier, and 30% Chardonnay. 8g sugar/L. 5 years old.

Aromas: The color is golden with red hues and shiny. In the glass, a regular effervescence with fine bubbles. The nose is precise and expressive, rich in orchard fruit scents, from ripe apples to the sweetness of honey. The palate, ample and generous, brings aromas of apple compote and puff pastry. The finish is soft and fruity.

Recommendation: ideal as a festive aperitif accompanied by savory petits fours. It pairs very well with roasted chicken or veal with small vegetables.

Note on potential allergens: contains alcohol, sulfites and residual sugar

And this is what Natalie Lumpp, TOP Sommelier, writes about the Cuvée Signature -1er Cru:

"The Cuvée Signature -1er Cru from Champagne Joseph Desruets shimmers in powerful gold and shows a very fine perlage. The aroma is spicy – reminiscent of baked apples with cinnamon – it conveys a sense of homeliness. The longer the champagne develops in the glass, the more its fresh aromas unfold. In the mouth, it presents itself as lively – fresh – and it possesses incredible depth – meaning, it doesn't just disappear when you drink it – you feel it for a long time.

It's also great fun with lamb's lettuce with croutons and bacon or with freshly smoked trout or char…"
