The family's entry-level stunner features a Meunier-dominant blend that spotlights the drive and poise of the estate’s leading lady, the underappreciated Pinot Meunier grape. This bottling is the platonic ideal of growers’ champagne - seeming to seamlessly weave the high-toned mineral streak of Vrigny with the delicate and more savory leaning aromas of this red grape-dominant blend, drawn from a total of 30 parcels within Vrigny. The current release, which is dominant to the 2016 vintage with around 30% reserve wines, sees 6 months in tank before bottling and a further 3-4 years on the lees in bottle.
