A methuselah holding the equivalent of eight bottles of pure zero-dosage Meunier, which is about as festive as grower Champagne gets. Les Vignes de Mon Village comes from forty-year-old vines in Cuisles, with a small share from neighboring Chatillon-sur-Marne, on the green clay, sand and limestone that give these wines their salty lift. Half the blend is the most recent harvest and half a perpetual reserve reaching back to 2014; it ferments and ages in stainless steel, goes through malolactic, spends roughly eighteen months on the lees and is disgorged with no dosage whatsoever. The name honors Jean-Marc Mousse, mayor of Cuisles for twenty-five years, who championed the village's Meunier when few others would. Six liters ages at a glacial pace, so there is no rush, though a bottle this size tends to create its own occasion.

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

A whole roast pig or turkey, buckets of fried chicken, oyster platters, or a long table of charcuterie and hard cheeses.

Tasting Profile

Dried pear, red berry, ginger and white flowers over stony minerality. Light to medium body, fine persistent mousse, high acidity, dry and chalky 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!
