All the chardonnay elegance and liveliness in this historical cuvée.Launched in the 1950s by Michel and Georges Pithois, our Cuvée Royale Brut Blanc de Blancs was one of the first 100% Chardonnay champagnes launched on the Champagne market.Once the grapes have been harvested, the winemaking process begins with gentle, gradual pressing. This essential step extracts a pure, delicate juice, without altering the fruit’s subtle aromas. The resulting musts are then fermented in temperature-controlled tanks, where the natural sugars are transformed into alcohol. Throughout this process, the oenological teams are careful to preserve the balance and elegance that are the hallmarks of the Joseph Perrier style.Blending is a key stage in the elaboration of Joseph Perrier champagnes, where the expertise of Nathalie Laplaige, our talented cellar master, comes into play. This demanding process is based on a meticulous selection of clear wines from the emblematic grape varieties of Champagne – chardonnay, pinot noir and meunier – as well as from the best terroirs and different years. Nathalie Laplaige tastes and blends these wines to create harmonious cuvées, where balance, finesse and freshness are at the heart of each creation.Some cuvées also include reserve wines, patiently stored for several years, to enrich their complexity and aromatic depth.Approximately 10 of the harvests come from Cumières, Avize, Chouilly, Mesnil sur Oger, Bergères-lès-Vertus, Trépail and Bassuet vineyards.AGEING – 36 months in the Estate’s cellars.RESERVE WINES – Approximately 15%.DOSAGE – 6 g/L
