Description

In 1971, to celebrate the house’s 50th anniversary, Bernard-Massard launched its beloved classic, Cuvée de l’Ecusson Brut. The wine quickly became the house’s flagship product and later also a favorite among Finns. It is an excellent reflection of Luxembourg’s wine culture, where both French and German influences meet. A blend of four grape varieties (Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc, and Riesling) expresses the long cultivation history of the Moselle region. The wine combines generous fruitiness with lively acidity. “Can you tell this apart from Champagne?” has been a test used for years.
