  11/29/2023 - Capt Cutlass Does not like this wine: 86 Points

  Tasted blind. Very pale pink hues. Pastry nose, rich, overdone. Tastes flat. Simple and sugary. I guess I’m not a fan of most Pinot Meuniers. Zero dosage…

  First go with the 2020 base. This now has 7 vintages in the perpetual composition, with this disgorgement (April 2021) having a good percentage of 2020 included. 100% Pinot Meunier, aged under cork (not crown cap), no dosage, from the green clay sites around the village. And for whatever issues there may be with the 2020 vintage and potentially off flavors, I don't sense it. With a hint of gold color, this is fragrant, more floral with some green citrus. Allowing this to shed the chill, flavors of peach, mint, yellow apple and in this disgorgement, there is some mango. It's not overly tropical but there is some of that orange tropical flesh here. This version of Mon Village has some of the chalky/salty signature but there is a beam of fruit that really drives the wine.
