Champagne Lallier
Blanc de Noirs

The Champagne Brut Blanc de Noirs by Lallier is made of 100% Pinot Noir grapes from two different and legendary Grand Cru terroirs: Aÿ in the Vallée de la Marne, offering softness and freshness, and Verzenay in the Montagne de Reims for its intense character. Harvesting is perfectly synchronised to ensure that the grapes used in Champagne Blanc de Noirs are at the peak of their ripeness. Vinification takes place in a combination of stainless steel tanks (90%) and 228-litre wooden barrels (10%), which adds complexity to the blend, while the long ageing on the lees - around 60 months - and its final dosage complete the characteristic profile of this extraordinary Blanc de Noirs.

This Champagne Brut Blanc de Noirs by Lallier has an intense golden colour approaching amber. To the nose it is complex and harmonious with delicate fruity notes. On the palate, the aromatic notes are dominated by slightly candied ripe fruits such as peach and mandarin. Spring honey takes over, supported by a touch of pastry. Rich and intense opening of spicy aromas, with a deep and penetrating finish- here is the signature of Pinot Noir of the great terroirs. Intense and balanced persistence with toasty notes.

Champagne Lallier

Maison Lallier was founded in Aÿ in 1906 thanks to the intuition of René Lallier. Already in 1936, Aÿ was one of the seventeen villages classified as "Grand Cru" in Champagne, a clear indication of the quality of the grapes growing on these famous hills. In 1996, René-James Lallier, the grandson of the founder, took the Maison in a new direction by carrying out important works of modernization of production facilities as well as renewing the cellars.

René-James, in his search for absolute quality, was helped by Francis Tribaut, who at the time worked as a consultant for some of the most prestigious names in the Champagne region. In 2004, as a result of their strong relationship of trust, when René-James Lallier decided to sell the Maison, he asked Francis Tribault if he was interested in buying it: he accepted, strongly convinced of the potential of the Maison. The years that followed showed the right direction and confirmed the reputation of excellence that Lallier Champagnes enjoy, year after year.
