Tasting context

The Reflets de la Haute Vallée cuvée is ideal for those looking for a champagne with character, rooted in the terroir. It can be enjoyed on its own as a drink with character, or to accompany delicate dishes where acidity and minerality play an essential role.

Why choose this cuvée?

This cuvée is a must for terroir enthusiasts: a single-vineyard estate, parcel-by-parcel viticulture, a demanding blend and an extra-brut dosage. Its mineral signature and aromatic complexity make it a unique wine, different from more classic profiles. It is a cuvée that embodies the identity of the R. Faivre estate.

Serving and storage advice

Store the bottle in a cellar at a stable temperature (10-12°C), away from light and vibrations. It can be kept for 6 to 8 years, until around 2033. Serve at around 9-10°C in a tulip or narrow-bowled glass, allowing it to rest for a few minutes after opening to allow the aromas to develop.
