“Anecdote” is an unusual wine from Moussé Fils, a grower that specializes in Pinot Meunier. Instead, the grapes for this wine comes from the Varosses lieu-dit which is planted 100% to Chardonnay. The wine pours a golden straw color with fine bubbles. There’s a remarkable nose of bruised pear, lightly toasted brioche, peaches, ginger bread, radishes and almonds…a little oxidative. On the palate, pear and peach with soaring acid and a bunch of minerals. Long dry finish. I liked this even better than the last time I had this wine. 02252016 disgorgement, 5G/L.
