This Extra‑Brut Champagne from Pierre Gerbais presents a refined expression of Celles‑sur‑Ource terroir, marrying the concentration of Pinot Noir with the elegance of Chardonnay and the soft texture of rare Pinot Blanc Vrai. Its restrained dosage and extended lees ageing yield a crystalline bead and an invigorating saline‑mineral eloquence.
