Champagne Pascal Lejeune - 100% Meunier Vieilles Vignes
Champagne
Effervescent
Sold individually
Drink or Keep
This new cuvée from Domaine Pascal Lejeune seduces from the first intense, complex and delicate nose. The passage of the still wine in barrel for several months gives it a rounder texture, while retaining the freshness and minerality of a champagne. Fruity and generous on the palate, with dominant notes of tangerine and spices (cinnamon, ginger), this is a true gourmet Champagne.

About the domain :
When Pascal and Sandrine took over the reins of the estate in 1995, they set out to give it new impetus: the vineyard expanded to 4 hectares 40, and integrated viticulture was introduced in the vines. Their son, Thibaut, joined them on the estate in the summer of 2015, perpetuating the House's winemaking expertise and family commitment.
