This popular cuvee is largely Meunier and Pinot Noir, including 10% red wine for the rose blush. Chardonnay makes up about 10-20%, including a percentage of reserve wines that could be contributing the oceanic, oyster shell notes that tconjur Kimmeridgean limestone of Champagne. This really is easy and appealing up front, with scents of orange and pomegranate. Later the wine retains brisk acidity and extends the flavors with vivacity.
