“CHAMPAGNE COMTE DE MARNE” FIEVET - GRANDE CUVEE
Epernay is the capital of the Champagne region, a town with a rich historical past, snuggled up along the Marne between hillsides and forests, and the headquarters of the principle brands of champagne.
CHARLES MIGNON, one of the rare houses with a family character, is implanted there and fervently holds onto its native Champagne identity.

This is a blend of 12 top Crus: this pale yellow wine combines freshness and elegance. The nose is open and intense, bringing to mind bread, lemon and butter. It is fresh and delicate on the palate, which comes from a marvellous balance between acidity and notes of white fruits.
The finish is long. This champagne offers generous substance that makes it suitable for ageing.
