Pierre Moncuit is already one of my favorite producers but a zero dosage vintage bottle is just glorious. The nose starts off a touch shy but soon blossoms with floral notes and plenty of citrus. There’s a bit of a dessert quality here with a little brioche and cinnamon apples.
A very precise and laser focused champagne from Mesnil. With no added dosage, the terroir really sings. Beautiful acidity creates a jolt of electricity in the glass. Lithe and lean, there’s complexity and characters here for days. Many, many years left for this to grow but it’s hard to pass up right now. — 3 years ago

This stuff was might fine as you might expect from M. Laval. Will hang onto the next one another 5-10 years — 3 months ago
