The Meunier grapes grown in calcareous soil are carefully hand-picked and then fermented in the bottle using wild yeast to create delicate bubbles. The aroma of bright red fruits and white flowers spreads abundantly, and the fresh acidity and minerals tighten the mouth. This extra brut wine is characterized by a clear and light taste. It has a pleasant balance of elegance and drinkability.

Owning & Enjoying

Tasting notes
It is golden in colour with a slight soft pink sheen.
Countless vibrant bubbles create a delicate, persistent ring of foam.
The aroma is medium-intensity with aromas of red fruit jam, citrus, quince and apple.
Over time, as it is exposed to air, the aroma of biscuit and meringue emerges, giving the Meunier its unique flavour.
On the palate, the purity stands out, with a lively and shining mouthfeel.
The red fruit flavours are again apparent with a sharp and delicate texture.
The gentleness of Meunier spreads in the middle, leading to a lingering aftertaste that exudes individuality.

Pairing
Salmon tartare, roast lamb, tuna sashimi
