Lallier

Which grape varieties and crus does Lallier favor?

Lallier focuses on two major grape varieties: Pinot Noir, for structure and power, and Chardonnay, for elegance and freshness. The grapes come mainly from Grands Crus and Premiers Crus, guaranteeing impeccable quality and a precise expression of the Champagne terroir.

What are the winemaking specifics at Lallier?

The house adopts a parcel-by-parcel approach, vinifying grapes separately to pRéserver the unique characteristics of each terroir. Malolactic fermentation is partial, retaining a certain liveliness while adding complexity. What's more, the cuvées benefit from prolonged ageing on fine lees in chalky cellars, often beyond the minimum requirements, which favours the development of tertiary aromas and texture on the palate.

What are Lallier's emblematic cuvées?

Lallier offers remarkable cuvées that reflect its expertise and the expression of its exceptional terroirs. Among them, Blanc de blancs, made exclusively from Chardonnay, seduces with its minerality and finesse. The Brut nature, with no dosage, highlights the purity and vivacity of noble grape varieties. Cuvée R.021, a harmonious blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Meunier, precisely expresses the character of the 2021 harvest. Finally, R.021 Rosé, with its Pinot Noir dominance and delicate red fruit notes, combines elegance and complexity.
