Aging

3 years

Aged in our cellars in Ludes

Canard-Duchêne Champagnes are at their finest the moment they leave the cellars. However, depending on your personal preference, they can be aged for an additional 2 to 3 years, provided they are stored away from light in a stable environment between 10°C and 15°C.

« The large proportion of reserve wines adds body and complexity to our fresh and fruity Maison' style.” »
