Brut Rosé : 50% Chardonnay, 50% Pinot Noir. A refined and delicate wine, with light aromas of red fruit. This blended rosé champagne shows a pink-orange colour.

The Centenaire box (New!) : the Ellner house celebrated its centenary in 2005.
Charles-Émile Ellner acquired his first plot of vines in 1905 in what he would call « the Epernay garden », and made his first vintage. One hundred years and 50ha later, the descendents of the 4th generation made the hundredth vintage of the Ellner house. Ten years on, it is now time for this exceptional vintage to come out of our cellars and meet the challenge of time. With this Centenaire box, we wish to honour the vision of Charles-Émile with two cuvées millésimées : the Prestige, which combines purity and greatness, and the Séduction, which allies ampleness to grace. These have been made with very light dosage to preserve their noble origins, and shall enchant you by their finesse and light bubbles, their everlasting youth and sense of celebration : that is the Ellner spirit.
