Pinot Meunier almost never gets a bottle to itself, and it almost never grows on Kimmeridgian limestone. Bochot is both. The domaine planted this small west-facing parcel in Celles-sur-Ource in the early 2010s using massale cuttings from the estate's older vines, out in the Cote des Bar, the southern edge of Champagne that sits closer to Chablis than to Reims. Aurelien Gerbais, the fourth generation here, has spent his tenure since 2011 turning the domaine into a set of single-parcel bottlings rather than a house blend. The wine is fermented and put through full malolactic in stainless steel, blended with a perpetual reserve running back to 2016, aged thirty-six months on lattes and finished at 3 g/L extra brut. Meunier usually plays the supporting role, valued for softness and early drinking; on limestone, with essentially no dosage, it comes out taut, savory and unexpectedly serious.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Fried chicken, mushroom toast, roast pork loin, a bowl of clams in white wine, or a mixed charcuterie board with cornichons and mustard.

Tasting Profile

Dry and medium-bodied, with yellow apple, quince, brioche and a smoky, savory edge. Fine persistent mousse, firm acidity, and a stony, bone-dry finish.

Champagne

Champagne boasts some of the world’s greatest luxury brands with Krug, Cristal and, of course, Dom Perignon. But it’s also home to hundreds of small dynamic producers—farmers who grow their own grapes (often organically) and make (often with natural methods) tiny amounts of pure and absolutely delicious wine that reflect the individual personalities of their villages and terroirs. Toast with these wines, for sure. But also treat them like the great wines they are: taste, drink, explore!
