FEATURES
The vintage 1001 is an obvious data error; this is a Non-Vintage (NV) Champagne. Frerejean Frères Grande Réserve Brut is a harmonious blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier, aged for four years on lees. It is crafted from Premier Cru and Grand Cru sites, primarily from Grauves, Cramant, and Verzenay. The house emphasizes artisanal craftsmanship and sustainable viticulture, with vines over 40 years old. This Champagne presents a radiant golden hue with fine bubbles. The nose is fresh and refined, with delicate aromas of white flowers (acacia, honeysuckle), citrus (grapefruit, lemon), and elegant pastry notes with hints of dried fruits like toasted almond. On the palate, it is lively and fresh with beautiful acidity, a silky texture, and notes of fresh mango and vineyard peach, evolving into a harmonious and lingering finish. Some notes also mention brioche, ripe apples, and minerality. 【 Crafted from Premier and Grand Cru sites with prolonged aging on lees, offering exceptional complexity and smoothness. 】
