Champagne Lallier's deliciously toasty Grand Rose is a blend of 65% Pinot Noir and 35% Chardonnay with partial malolactic fermentation providing smooth creamy notes, which are supported by the complexity of 8% reserve wines in this blend. Three years on lees (decomposing yeast cells) provides beautiful depth of flavour. This bubbly was bottled with 8 grams of dosage, which makes it dry in taste and style.
The primary fermentation took place partially in oak barrels, which softens the wine and accentuates its savoury characters.

This fabulous gift pack of champagne includes Lallier's three top champagnes, Les Sous, Loridon and Ouvrage; all next level and small production.
Les Sous
Champagne Lallier Les Sous is 100% Pinot Noir from a single Grand Cru vineyard in Ay, which is planted on a sloping hillside of chalk soils. The high altitude site provides cool nights to retain freshness from the high acidity in the grapes, which also receive plentiful sunshine to aid ripeness, thanks to their elevated growing position.
This wine was aged on tirage (yeast lees) for over three years and bottled with four grams dosage per litre, making it a dry style.
Loridon
Champagne Lallier Loridon is 100% Chardonnay champagne made from grapes grown on a 1.6 hectare Grand Cru vineyard called Loridon, which is situated in Ay.
The base wine was fermented with Lallier yeasts then treated to a partial malolactic fermentation and the wine was aged on tirage for over three years then bottled as an extra brut style with three grams dosage per litre.
Ouvrage
Champagne Lallier Ouvrage is a blend of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay, each coming, respectively from Le Meurtet Vineyard in Ay and Les Hureaux Vineyard in Oger. It was fermented with Lallier yeasts and blended with 20% reserve wines. The final wine was bottled with 3 grams dosage per litre, making it an extra brut style.

"Andre Clouet Chalky" is characterized by prominent mineral notes, a salty quality, and a distinct "chalky" texture on the palate, highlighting the chalky soils of the Champagne region, with flavours often described as fresh apple, lemon, and a hint of sea spray, finishing with a long, mineral-driven aftertaste; essentially, a very focused expression of the region's terroir with a pronounced saline character
Chalk is the fundamental element of the Champagne terroir! The history of chalk goes back to the Jurassic era, 200 million years ago when the whole region was covered by the sea. Although poor in nutrients, chalk stores both warmth and water, releasing them regularly, providing the perfect foundation for Champagne vines. Draining off the excess, retaining water enriched by microscopic marine fossils, Chalk nourishes the vine with maternal affection, with minerality and an inimitable salinity ! Lastly, chalk is the protector of champagne as it ages, allowing itself to be dug into deep underground cellars, where the precious nectar can safely mature, tucked away from the light and fluctuations in temperature.
