Extra-Dry

Extra-Dry - Cuvée Grande Réserve

« Meunier brings to this champagne the fruity notes, pinot noir contributes strength and distinctive taste, and chardonnay gives it a touch of elegance and freshness. A minimum of four years ageing providing a delightful maturity and complexity to our Grande Réserve blend.

Contrary to what you might think, the Extra-Dry is slightly sweeter champagne than the brut, but less so than the Semi-Dry. This champagne represents a large percentage of our sales. It is very popular because it can be drunk as an aperitif or with dessert.»

"Beautiful light gold color. Fruity nose somewhat reminiscent of fruit in syrup. On the palate, a round, tender champagne that remains on this tangy fruit tones. The finish is clean, generous with accents of stewed fruits."

Food Pairing

Champagne for aperitif or dessert. Ideal with a lukewarm mango, lemon, passion fruit granita, or a curry with shrimps and lychees.
