This fabulous gift pack of champagne includes Lallier's three top champagnes, Les Sous, Loridon and Ouvrage; all next level and small production.
Les Sous
Champagne Lallier Les Sous is 100% Pinot Noir from a single Grand Cru vineyard in Ay, which is planted on a sloping hillside of chalk soils. The high altitude site provides cool nights to retain freshness from the high acidity in the grapes, which also receive plentiful sunshine to aid ripeness, thanks to their elevated growing position.
This wine was aged on tirage (yeast lees) for over three years and bottled with four grams dosage per litre, making it a dry style.
Loridon
Champagne Lallier Loridon is 100% Chardonnay champagne made from grapes grown on a 1.6 hectare Grand Cru vineyard called Loridon, which is situated in Ay.
The base wine was fermented with Lallier yeasts then treated to a partial malolactic fermentation and the wine was aged on tirage for over three years then bottled as an extra brut style with three grams dosage per litre.
Ouvrage
Champagne Lallier Ouvrage is a blend of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay, each coming, respectively from Le Meurtet Vineyard in Ay and Les Hureaux Vineyard in Oger. It was fermented with Lallier yeasts and blended with 20% reserve wines. The final wine was bottled with 3 grams dosage per litre, making it an extra brut style.
About Champagne Lallier
Lallier was founded in 1906 by Ren? Lallier, whose family owned and ran it until the company was purchased in 2004 by winemaker Francis Tibaut, who had worked for the family for many years and had a passion for these wines.
Tibaut purchased Lallier and he has now sold the company to Campari.
Lallier owns approximately 15 hectares of vineyards, mostly Grand Cru and mostly around the village of Ay, one of the Champagne region's key villages.
All Lallier champagnes are made solely from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes. Production is 400,000 bottles annually.
* The letter R is for recolt?, the French word for year.
