“Buttery with lemon-curd complexity, brioche and chalk, more restrained than oxidative. Light-bodied, racy and citrusy, this is tight with a refined yet biting texture. Chalky finish. Drink or hold.” – James Suckling
Tasting Note: Just a hint of rose, coming from the colour of the skins of the Meunier. Nose full of red fruits, of grenadine, opening up with aeration to bring violets with lifted notes of eucalyptus. Palate begins in a soft and silky fashion, extending to a beautiful evolution of the Meunier through notes of yellow fruit, and offering a rich round sensation with a beautiful, slightly zesty finish.
Winemaking Notes: Le Ciergelot ZD214 – Verneuil. Located in the middle of the slope this vineyard has soils of moderate clay and chalk. Brut nature – 0g/l residual sugar. Aged 36 months.
