Mostly Pinot Meunier with a bit of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay blended in. This is predominantly from the 2014 vintage with some reserve wines, and extra time spent aging on lees (3-4 years!). A stylish, organic, nonvintage Champagne.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 90
"The NV Brut Nature Tradition Premier Cru is a blend of half Meunier, 40% Pinot Noir and 10% Chardonnay picked in Vrigny and fermented and aged in foudre, barrels and tanks without any added sulfites. Juicy red and green apple notes are shy on the nose. The palate comes with a buttery notion and a sense of slightly bitter but pleasant phenolics that rather call for food on this rounded, Pinot-dominant wine. The foam is lively but fine and an essential, yeasty saltiness at the core makes this most appetizing. Zero dosage." -Antonio Galloni

"The low dosage that gives the wine its designation as Extra Brut fits well with the rich white fruit of this wine. It has a ripe while very dry character that will be even better as the wine matures for a few more months."

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!
