Joseph Perrier Cuvée Royale Champagne Demi-Sec

Excellent with sweet-and-sour dishes from around the world, such as Peking duck, lamb curry, or Tahitian crab and pineapple salad. Equally enjoyable as a social and celebratory Champagne. Suitable for vegans.

Distinctly sweet Demi-Sec Champagne is, for many, an approachable introduction to Champagne, while also remaining a classic dessert wine when an entire dinner has been accompanied solely by Champagne. For some, the salinity of oysters calls for the balancing touch of this Champagne style, while Demi-Sec is equally well suited to Asian cuisine with its spices and sweet sauces. The grape varieties are almost evenly balanced (35% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir, 30% Meunier). The blend includes fruit from more than 20 vineyard parcels in the villages of Cumières, Damery, Hautvillers and Verneuil, with 20% reserve wines. The final dosage is 38 g/l, and the wine was aged for 36 months.
