Tasting Notes

Vinous Antonio Galloni - 07 Dec 23
The NV Extra Brut Petit Meslier is bright, punchy and savory. Dried lemon peel, mint, almond, white flowers and sage give the Petit Meslier tons of aromatic and flavor complexity. I especially admire the translucent energy here. This is an incredibly distinctive, flavorful Champagne with a lot of character that comes from the blend of the base vintage and a considerable amount of reserve wines. Disgorged: October, 2022.

Champagne

Champagne, exclusively from France's Champagne region, is synonymous with luxury and celebration. Made primarily from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier, it undergoes secondary fermentation in the bottle, creating its signature bubbles. Flavours range from crisp green apple and citrus to rich, toasty notes of nuts and honey. Yeast contact in the bottle contributes to pastry and brioche notes, which are a key part of good quality Champagne. Top producers include Moët & Chandon, Veuve Clicquot, and Krug.
