The one wine in Aurelien Suenen's range that leaves the Cote des Blancs, and the only one that isn't Chardonnay: La Grande Vigne is 100% Pinot Meunier from Montigny-sur-Vesle, northwest of Reims, where deep Thanetian sand over chalk lets the vines grow ungrafted on their own roots because phylloxera cannot survive in sand. The parcel faces northwest, which keeps acidity and tension in a grape that can easily turn broad. Suenen took over his family's Cramant estate in 2009 at 23 and rebuilt it around organic farming, certified in 2019, indigenous-yeast fermentation and long ageing on the lees. This 2019 was picked on 14 September in a vintage cut short by spring frost and then concentrated by a hot, dry summer, and was disgorged in June 2025 with 2.4 grams of dosage. Serious, savory Meunier, and made in very small quantity.

"The old-vine 2019 Pinot Meunier Montigny-sur-Vesle La Grande Vigne, disgorged in June 2025 with a dosage of 2.4 grams per liter, stands among the more light-footed wines in Suenen’s 2019 lieux-dits lineup. Harvested on the relatively early side—on September 14—it reflects a deliberate choice to preserve sound fruit, given the variety’s inherently soft skins. The wine emerges from the glass with notes of white currant, quince and yellow apple mingled with dried flowers, leading into a medium-bodied, taut and racy palate with a saline profile and mouthwatering acidity that carries through to a persistent finish. Readers will recall that this cuvée derives from ungrafted vines planted in 1969 on deep sandy soils, where the roots never penetrate the underlying chalk bedrock." —Kristaps Karklins

More about Suenen

Aurélien Suenen farms just under four hectares, mostly in the grand cru villages of Cramant, Chouilly and Oiry, plus a tiny parcel of ungrafted Meunier in Montigny-sur-Vesle. Certified organic since 2019, chalk-obsessed, and patient, he makes mineral-driven Blanc de Blancs built for long cellaring, with a perpetual reserve adding depth to the non-vintage wines. Pure terroir in a glass.

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!
