My first Prevost La Closerie “&”. After enjoying many bottles of the regular La Closerie the last few years, I’ve had this as a bottle to try for a while. A portion of the wine comes from Prevost's Béguines vineyard (as does the entirety of the “regular” Closerie), and the rest comes from other sites in the village of Gueux.
LC21 (‘21 vintage); 100% Pinot meunièr, 2.5g/l dosage; disgorged Sept ‘23
Enjoyed side by side with the LC20 La Closerie. Although different vintages and slightly different fruit, you can see the similarities easily. Both have the typical Prevost deep champagne color and jump from the glass with ginger, spiced pear and caramel apple. The mid-palate continues similarities with the nutty and espresso profile but this takes a turn away from a noticeable oxidized profile to a more typical fruit-forward meunièr profile (brighter citrus, not as heavy). The finish isn’t as lengthy, however, after a few hours of being open, this drank nearly identical to the regular La Closerie (the oxidized notes came out and the finish bulked up in richness). No natty-vibes here.
Enjoyable side by side by arguably the master of Pinot meunièr. — a month ago
