R. Pouillon & fils "Grand Vallée" Extra Brut NV (2021 Base)

Grand Vallée is an expression of the Vallée de la Marne through the Pouillon lens. It is a blend of all of Pouillon’s holdings relative to what those vineyards are comprised of - roughly 65% pinot noir, 20% pinot meunier, and 15% chardonnay. This cuvée has evolved over time and improved in quality to better reflect the evolution of the domaine at large. Formerly known as "Réserve Brut", the "Grande Vallée" cuvée is fermented with native yeasts, half in neutral barrique and half fermented in enameled tank. Elevage continues a minimum of 6-8 months before the wine is blended with the previous vintage and the "perpetual cuvée" to be refermented in bottle utilizing the Method Fabrice Pouillon.
