  Dinner with Alva and Leo from Idealwines: Bready, slightly funky nose. Round texture, slightly honeyed on the palate. A little too natural and oxidative in style for me.

  Superbe nez sur les fruits jaunes et la brioche. Bouche crémeuse et energique avec une belle alonge, bulle fine. Base 2013. Bien plus complexe et profond que la bouteille bue il y a 2 ans. Il faut attendre 8-10 ans pour apprécier les champagne bien faits.

  Light golden hue. Aromas of brioche, toasted almonds, honeysuckle, grapefruit, lemon, apricots. Smooth, round, and fresh palate. Delicious now or hold. Extra brut. Disgorged January 2019. 70% pinot meunier, 20% chardonnay and 10% pinot noir. Three years on the lees.

  At lunch at Tentazioni, 95% Meunier and 5% Chardonnay, 12&11 base, June 2018 disgorgement. Quite a light style for a Meunier dominant wine, bright fruit, crisp and enjoyable if a little simple.

  Base year 2010, deg. 2016. This is open, mature and ready to go. Beautifully aromatic with notes of slightly brownish apple, some spices, chalky minerality, some nuts, also a touch of honey, as well as a nice herbal note. It‘s medium-full bodied, with medium-high acidity and nicely even and smaller mousse. Pretty long finish with very good complexity in this price range. A lovely, mineral-driven and delicious Champagne that is showcasing the abilities of Pinot Meunier.
