The vineyards of the Champagne region are highly sought after worldwide. The Union Champagne wine cooperative owns a whopping 1,200 hectares in this region. Most of the vineyards are located in the famous Cotes de Blancs, a region renowned for its exceptional Chardonnay grapes. The Chardonnay grapes are best expressed in the Blanc de Blancs wines, which are made entirely from Chardonnay. Union Champagne is a partnership of 15 village cooperatives, one of which is Champagne de Reyve. The grapes are sourced from more than 2,350 grape growers and winemakers, providing a wonderful foundation for the magnificent Champagnes that result from this partnership.
In the impressive Union de Champagne cellar, meters underground, the Champagnes are produced with great care. Nothing is left to chance, and regular tastings are conducted to ensure perfect results. Almost all cuvées are produced in stainless steel to preserve their freshness. The Blanc de Blancs Premier Cru is made using the traditional method, with a second fermentation in the bottle.
With a golden yellow color, the Reyve Blanc de Blancs sparkles in the glass. White flowers, such as lime blossom, and mineral notes surprise the aroma. The palate is delicately moussed. Delightfully seductive and highly aromatic. A refreshing and juicy Champagne that makes an ideal aperitif but also pairs well with salmon tartare.
