register to RSRV clubThe RSRV Blanc de Noirs 2012 vintage is made from Pinot Noir from Verzenay, a Grand Cru grown to the north of the Montagne de Reims. The minerality that typifies this terroir produces a clear, high-quality Pinot Noir, giving this vintage an elegant complexity. Characterized by its aromas of yellow fruit and toasted brioche notes, this champagne has a long and beautifully intense finish on the palate. A minimum of six years’ aging in cellars and a minimal dosage of six grams per liter reveal the structure and aromatic richness of this vintage. The slender neck of the bottle enhances the evolution and conservation of the wine.

Behind the cuvée
THE 2012 VINTAGE
A mild winter was followed by a cool, rainy spring resulting in late flowering of the vine. Summer 2012 was hot and sunny from mid-July until harvest time, with favorable weather conditions for maturing the grapes. The 2012 harvest was of exceptional quality, with healthy grapes, picked at optimal maturity.
