Dehours & Fils La Croix Joly Reserve Perpetuelle Lieu-dit Extra Brut Champagne NV 750ml

Dehours & Fils Champagne Extra Brut "La Croix Joly" Réserve Perpétuelle Lieu-dit NV is a refined and terroir-focused Champagne from the Vallée de la Marne. Produced from Pinot Meunier and sourced from the La Croix Joly lieu-dit, this cuvée highlights the distinctive character of a specific vineyard site while combining wines from multiple harvests through a perpetual reserve approach.

The Extra Brut style delivers a dry, precise and mineral-driven expression. The perpetual reserve adds layers of complexity and texture, bringing together fresh fruit from younger wines with the mature and developed character of older reserve wines.

Expressive yet elegant, La Croix Joly offers a harmonious balance of ripe orchard fruit, citrus, mineral freshness and subtle savory and toasted nuances. Its refined structure and lively acidity make it particularly suitable for food pairing and sophisticated occasions.
