Region & Terroir

Champagne, France

Yellow Label is a non-vintage Champagne built from fruit across the region's cool northern vineyards. Reserve wines help preserve the house style despite vintage variation, emphasizing consistency, ripe fruit, and a broad palate.

Grape Varieties

Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Meunier

Pinot Noir is the backbone, giving structure and red-apple richness. Chardonnay brings freshness and lift, while Pinot Meunier rounds the blend with supple fruit and approachability.

Soil & Vinification

Chalk and limestone soils contribute brightness and a dry mineral edge. Bottle fermentation, lees aging, and blending with reserve wines create the familiar toast, cream, and orchard-fruit profile.
