The “Trio S” cuvée showcases the history of Champagne Dehours in a bottle. Sourced exclusively from the perpetual reserve started in 1998, this wine is deeply rich with a bouquet of ripe pear and apple, dry leaves, subtle black tea and baked French baguette laced in mineral tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe beautiful density on the palate is silky, delicate and lifted by sensational tiny bubbles. Drink now in a big white wine glass – Brut – Dosage 7g\/l.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Solera method removes 30% of wine each year and is replaced with new wine. The blend is 60% Meunier 35% Chardonnay 5% Pinot noir – the field blend. Lovely mature notes and very gentle effect of oak. Not raw, virbrant and beautiful. Some kept in vat, some in oak.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the house\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp title=\"Page 1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe are excited to introduce this all-new producer to Australia.
