Malolactic fermentation
Carte d'Or is the iconic cuvée since 1982. The fruity predominance of the Meunier gives this champagne its structure while a hint of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay complete the blend. To ensure a consistent style from year to year and maintain the balance sought, this cuvee includes a high percentage of reserve wines from several harvests (3 to 4 years). These wines are preserved in separate vats and respect the typicalities of each cru and year. This cuvée is aged for a minimum of 4.5 years.
Available in bottles (75cl) and half-bottles (37,5cl)
