Delicious Meunier. First time with this producer… — 3 months ago
How does it compare to other meunier champagnes (Mousse Fils L’Or Eugene, Dehours, Prevost)?
@Shay A No comparison to the level of Prevost. The others you mentioned, although familiar, I don’t recall having drank anytime recently. Either way I thought this was a very impressive Champagne at its price point, and for being poured BTG.
@Lee Pitofsky : I always get a distinct gummy fruit flavor on most meunier champagnes (aside from the ones mentioned above). For my preference, I like my meunier on the more ripe/robust side. When meunier gets it right, it’s sublime. I’ll have to seek some of this out.

Citrus notes and a bit dry. Enjoyable with mascarpone almonds and mild cheese. — 3 days ago
