De Venoge Princes Brut 4rd Edition

Winemaker De Venoge on the winery

“Maison de Venoge was founded in 1837 by Henri-Marc de Venoge and is based in Épernay, in the heart of Champagne. Our house is renowned for its elegant champagnes and distinctive Princes collection. The history of this cuvée dates back to 1864, when Joseph de Venoge created it as a tribute to the Princes of Orange. The characteristic bottle also reflects this heritage: its shape was inspired by the crystal decanters in which European aristocracy served champagne in the early twentieth century. Tradition and refinement remain at the heart of our house.”

And on Champagne, France

“For the fourth edition of our Princes Brut, we blend the three classic Champagne grape varieties: 39% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay and 26% Meunier. The grapes come from eleven different villages, including renowned Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards. The blend consists of 47% from the 2021 harvest and no less than 53% reserve wines from 2018, 2019 and 2020. This brings added complexity and depth. With a dosage of just 5 grams per litre, the style remains refined and dry, with a delicate mousse, floral nuances and an elegant, fresh finish.”
