The Lallier Champagne boxed set brings together two emblematic cuvées made from the great terroirs of Champagne: a 100% Chardonnay Blanc de Blancs and a 100% Pinot Noir Blanc de Noirs. These two wines highlight Lallier's precise, structured approach to blending and ageing.

The Blanc de Blancs is distinguished by an expression centred on the purity and minerality of the Chardonnay, while the Blanc de Noirs offers a more assertive structure, underpinned by the natural density of the Pinot Noir. Each cuvée has its own specific aromatic profile, reflecting the diversity of the limestone soils and plots from which they come.

This boxed set has been designed to allow a comparative discovery of the two major grape varieties of Champagne within the same house. It is aimed at connoisseurs wishing to analyse the differences between chalky finesse and more robust expression, through two complementary interpretations.

Description

LALLIER CHAMPAGNE GIFT SET - Blanc de Blancs & Blanc de Noirs

This boxed set brings together two emblematic Lallier cuvées: Blanc de Blancs, 100% Chardonnay from Grands Crus, and Blanc de Noirs, 100% Pinot Noir from exceptional terroirs. It is aimed at demanding wine-lovers looking for contrasting expressions of the Champagne region.

Technical characteristics

House: Lallier (Aÿ, Marne Valley, Champagne).
Box containing two bottles (75 cl): Blanc de Blancs + Blanc de Noirs.
Blanc de Blancs: 100% Chardonnay from the Grands Crus of Aÿ and the Côte des Blancs. Prolonged ageing on lees. Moderate dosage.
Blanc de Noirs: 100% Pinot Noir from Aÿ (and Verzenay according to sources). Dosage around 7 g/L. Extended ageing.
Appellation: Champagne AOC, cuvées Grand Cru.

Sensory profile and terroir

The Cuvée Blanc de Blancs has a light yellow colour with emerald highlights, a nose of hawthorn, acacia, hazelnut and praline, followed on the palate by a pleasant mineral tension, citrus fruits (lemon, yuzu) and a fresh finish. In contrast, the Blanc de Noirs develops an unusual fullness and density. The nose evokes candied ripe fruit (peach, tangerine), honey and spices, while the structure on the palate is based on Pinot Noir, with a sustained texture and a toasty finish.

Use and tasting

For those who appreciate the finesse of Chardonnay, the Blanc de Blancs highlights the mineral elegance of a chalky terroir. - For those who prefer substance and depth, the Blanc de Noirs is a full-bodied, structured expression of Pinot Noir in Champagne. These two cuvées can be served at the start of a meal, during a crate service or as a moment of discovery. These champagnes should be served between approximately 8°C and 10°C for the Blanc de Blancs, and between 10°C and 12°C for the Blanc de Noirs.

Why choose this boxed set?

The boxed set offers a double sensory journey through Lallier, based on two major grape varieties (Chardonnay and Pinot Noir) and two terroir profiles. It allows you to compare and appreciate the specific characteristics of the Grands Crus, the Côte des Blancs (for the Blanc de Blancs) and the Montagne de Reims/Aÿ (for the Blanc de Noirs). Careful vinification, blending of reserve wines (in the case of the Blanc de Blancs) and long ageing (in the case of the Blanc de Noirs) guarantee a consistent, expressive quality.

Practical advice

Store bottles in a cool place, away from light and temperature variations.
Open the bottle carefully, avoiding rough handling.
To bring out the best in each cuvée, serve the Blanc de Blancs at the beginning of the meal, and the Blanc de Noirs at a later stage to let its presence shine through.
Recommended temperature: 8-10°C for the Blanc de Blancs, 10-12°C for the Blanc de Noirs. Do not serve below this temperature to avoid attenuating the aromas.
