Brut Grande Réserve

The Grande Réserve from Bergeronneau Marion is made from three grape varieties and ages for four years, 12 to 15 months longer than the house's Brut Tradition. This extra time on the lees generally brings more depth and roundness to a champagne. As a brut it is dry, with only a little residual sugar, which makes it suitable for a wide range of occasions.

It works as an aperitif, but also stands up to a meal with meat, such as poultry, veal or a light roast. Serve it at 9 to 11°C in a white wine glass with a bit of volume rather than a narrow flute, so that aroma and structure come across better.
