Home-drinking - Disg July 2017 so 2013 base I figure. Feels more primary and less evolved than the 16 disgorgement I had recently. Yeasty nose and telltale praline flavour if Egly wines. Lots of primary Pinot Meunier goodness and drive that fills the palate spherical. It is a wine that can age quite gracefully. The Vrigny is undervalued in the Egly stable. It provides the Egly magic with age and is the only take of the master on 100% Meunier.

This 100% Pinot Meunier champagne is absolutely enchanting. It's a departure from the ordinary, offering a delightful medley of chalky nuances, rich yeastiness, toasty hints, and a touch of bruised apple. With every sip, it feels like stepping into a bakery, a truly joyful experience. It's both playful and captivating, inviting everyone to experience its unique charm. While it may not suit everyone's taste, it's well worth exploring.

I'm partial to Egly. My go to when I can. This one is 100% P Meunier and it sings. Vinous, mineral, complex.

Riktigt trevlig Meunier, dracks i RFeims med Carl-Edmund Sherman.
Hög kvalite, serverades blind och han plockade inte den ;-)
Köp gärna igen!!
