The 2014 Extra Brut Blanc de Blanc Millesime Grand Cru is bright and nicely focused, but also effortlessly softened by the passage of time. Dried citrus peel, spice, marzipan and chamomile fill out the layers. Soft contours wrap it all together in style. The 2014 is a fine choice for drinking now and over the next handful of years. The Millésimé is sourced from 60-plus-year-old vines, all in Mesnil.
Importer Notes
In 1889 Pierre Moncuit and his wife, Odile Moncuit-Delos, established the house of Champagne Pierre Moncuit. Since 1977, Nicole Moncuit has managed the vineyards and made the wine, while her brother Yves has managed the sales. More recently, Nicole’s daughter Valérie has been actively assisting in the cellar. Mesnil lies smack in the middle of the Côte des Blancs and is its most celebrated village. The wines of Mesnil are known above all for steely elegance and minerality, and those from chez Pierre Moncuit—which has some of the oldest vines along the entire Côte—superbly reflect these qualities.
Blend: 100% Chardonnay
