- JH Quenardel 'Blason Vert' Champagne Brut comes from a blend of Chardonnay grapes. (47%), Pinot Noir (38%) and Pinot Meunier (15%) grown using sustainable agronomic practices, as demonstrated by the 'VDC' and 'HVE' certifications. In particular, both Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier comes from villages in Champagne classified as Premier Cru. After the harvest, the grapes are transferred to the cellar and vinified in white through soft pressing and alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Once ready, the sparkling base is then bottled with the addition of the liqueur de tirage for refermentation in accordance with the prestigious Champenoise Method. This is followed by a long refinement of at least 36 months on the yeasts, at the end of which we proceed with the disgorgement and final dosage as Brut, at 7.8 g/l of residual sugars. Specifically, a perpetual reserve base from Chardonnay grapes is used for the liqueur d'expedition.
