If you’re looking for a beautiful expression from the Côte des Blancs, the Champagne Robert Moncuit ‘Les Grands Blancs’ is an outstanding option.

Moncuit is a grower producer, first established in 1889, with Pierre Amillet (fourth generation) at the helm since 2000.

It is 100% Chardonnay made with a blend of fruit coming from two of the six Grand Cru Villages of the Côte des Blancs – Le Mesnil-sur-Oger and Oger.

The wine was vinified in oak, lending a very delicate oxidative character and richness. It’s extra brut, so very dry with zero dosage added, just the natural residual sugar left over from the second fermentation.

It is precise!!! With bright citrus and orchard fruit notes, a nervy acidity, next to pastry, toasty, mineral qualities and a creamy mousse that fills the palate. It has a beautiful balance across the board.

Cheers to champagne season (which is every season)!! 🥂🍾 — 18 days ago
