Located at the tip of the Côte des Blancs in Champagne, Maison Duval-Leroy has proudly upheld its three core values—protect, perfect, and pass on—since its founding in 1859. Deeply committed to ecological responsibility, the Champagne Duval-Leroy House offers champagnes that express their terroir and the character of each vintage. Elegance, minerality, and brightness define the champagnes of Duval-Leroy, renowned for their great aromatic complexity and structure.

The vineyard

This cuvée comes from Premier Cru and Grand Cru plots in the Côte des Blancs, the Montagne de Reims, and the Vallée de la Marne. The vines, averaging 35 to 45 years old, are certified HVE level 3 and Sustainable Viticulture in Champagne, as is the entire Duval-Leroy estate.

The wine

Crafted from a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, this outstanding bottle draws its character from the 2014 vintage and an exceptional collection of reserve wines. This Brut Champagne is dosed at 2.5g/l.
